"I'm extremely pleased to welcome Kurt to the Board of FIRST," said Derrick Scholl, director of software security incident response at Sun Microsystems and outgoing Chairman of FIRST. "I know our community will benefit from the great energy, knowledge and experience he brings with him."

Board members guide the work of FIRST throughout the year and represent the diverse makeup of the computer security incident response community. FIRST is a non-profit membership organization that facilitates the exchange of knowledge and information within the sphere of computer security teams. By connecting member teams with one another, FIRST provides a valuable foundation of mutual trust and recognition, while also providing opportunities for training, advocacy and education on issues affecting the computer security industry.

"I've been involved with FIRST for over ten years, and I have always had a high regard for the organization. I'm honored to join FIRST's steering committee and Board of Directors," said Sauer. "I look forward to working with the other members of the Board to help expand the tremendous work that FIRST does into lesser-developed parts of the world. In parts of Asia and Africa, Internet bandwidth is being delivered at breakneck speed, despite having little experience in computer security."

Kurt Sauer, who was elected to the Board of FIRST in July, 2009, is the founder and Managing Director of Spinlock Technologies LLC, and for the past 17 years has provided strategic advice to companies in the areas of secure networking, telecommunications and critical infrastructure protection. For the five years prior to joining Spinlock Technologies, Mr. Sauer was the Chief Security Officer of Skype, a division of eBay, where he was responsible for the overall security posture of the company. Previous to this, Sauer worked as a principal engineer for distributed network security at Sun Microsystems from its European research laboratory in France.

A frequent speaker on the topic of the future of information security, Mr. Sauer has provided consultation regarding information security policy to a wide variety of national and international bodies, including Eurojust, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission, and the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL). As a former law enforcement officer himself, Mr. Sauer is able to bring a unique perspective to the needs of coordinating the efforts of law enforcement and incident response teams. Kurt Sauer holds a bachelor's degree in computer engineering from Texas A&M University as well as a Certified Information Systems Security Professional credential.

BlueBackUp Revolutionises Disaster Recovery by Introducing an Affordable DR Plan for Businesses

BlueBackUp announces the launch of its new Disaster Recovery service, which significantly reduces the level of risk for companies by enabling them to restore their business quickly after a major incident - at a cost that is considerably lower than a conventional DRP, while also providing a broader level of service than its competitors.

Brussels (PRWEB) July 11, 2009 -- Implementing a business recovery plan can be both complex and costly. Also, in the light of the current economic crisis, it comes a no surprise to learn that almost 50% of companies employing between 100 and 1,000 staff prefer not to invest in a comprehensive Disaster Recovery Plan.

There can be a number of reasons for this: the cost of investment may be too high, the business may lack infrastructure or be short of qualified staff. Also, by calling on a company that specialises in DR that also supplies backup offices and hardware, businesses are still ultimately responsible for the most critical part of the recovery process: rebuilding their servers and IT data.

BlueBackUp's new Disaster Recovery offering represents a highly attractive alternative for companies that do not have the budget or infrastructure needed to establish a full DRP.

1) How does the BlueBackUp Disaster Recovery Plan work?

- If there is a server crash or serious incident in the office, the customer's data is restored on physical/virtual servers at BlueBackUp's data centre (DR site).
- During the time it takes for new servers to become operational, the customer can connect remotely (via a VPN connection) to the DR site, where its critical applications will have been restored. This enables customers to restart their business within a very short space of time (3, 12, 24, 48 hours, etc.).
- BlueBackUp can also make backup offices and hardware available to companies that need them.
- Unlike other Disaster Recovery providers, BlueBackUp takes responsibility for rebuilding the customer's applications - which represents a genuine added value in comparison with conventional DR services.

2) What are the main benefits of BlueBackUp compared with a conventional DRP?

- Business operations are back up and running within a very short space of time should disaster strike, plus greater flexibility of service : in cases where customers are already backing up their data at our data centres, BlueBackUp is in the ideal position to help them recover their data very quickly. Customers can choose the actual amount of time it takes to restart their business.
- No need to worry about the maintenance and cost of a disaster recovery site or finding replacement hardware : Emergency spare servers are maintained by BlueBackUp at its own data centre. BlueBackUp handles the task of finding backup offices for customers who need it.
- Unlike conventional Disaster Recovery Plans, it is BlueBackUp itself that takes charge of the entire procedure of rebuilding data.
- Customers can also test the disaster recovery plan with a few mouse-clicks so that they are ready should disaster strike one day.

"Being able to guarantee business continuity should a major problem occur is a real worry for companies". explains Philip Wittmann, BlueBackUp's founder. "But not at any price - especially in the current economic climate. With BlueBackUp and by combining backup and Disaster Recovery, every company can now protect itself against these serious risks, as well as implement a Business Continuity Plan that will deliver unbeatable value for money, whatever its size and scope."

BlueBackUp is the first online backup service to offer its customers a complete Disaster Recovery solution. And by expanding its offering even further in the wake of the recent launch of exclusive data restoration tools, BlueBackUp clearly intends to set the benchmark by positioning itself as THE specialist in protecting IT data.

This is the second Microsoft contest in recent weeks in which eMazzanti Technologies has claimed the grand prize. The previous contest, "Driving Small Business Success", awarded eMazzanti with a 2009 Mercedes Benz Smart FourTwo Car. For this partner video contest, eMazzanti's grand prize is a set of Lenovo IdeaPads. eMazzanti's track record as the leader in the field of computer networking is evident from Microsoft's continued recognition. eMazzanti's contest winning submission further details what the firm believes is the next big thing for its client base.

The video shows Marcus Daniels, a network engineer at eMazzanti Technologies, describing why Windows 7 is such an exciting new product and what that means to IT professionals from a support and end user perspective. Features such as Aero Peek, Aero Snap, and multi-touch support show Microsoft's focus on making Windows 7 a product that can drive productivity and functionality. Aero Snap makes navigating through multiple windows a breeze; effectively, this means more productivity for the end user. Aero Snap allows windows to be split side-by-side, allowing for an ease in comparing windows. Multi-touch support allows natural presses, strokes, and even pen input for laptop computers - this means that even on the go, legal documents can be signed, windows can be resized and zoomed in with finger gestures. Microsoft has recognized customer needs and molded Windows 7 with this in mind.

A fun and functional experience is a major goal of eMazzanti, and Microsoft echoes that ideology with these features. For the end-user the PC will be enjoyable, productive, and intuitive. With Windows 7, eMazzanti Technologies will continue to create this experience, as it has in the past with other new technologies. Windows 7 is just a new avenue to help eMazzanti accomplish its mission: driving value and fostering growth.

eMazzanti is passionate in what is possible for its clients. The grand prize winner in the "Windows 7 + You = Success | What's Your Story?" partner video contest, Microsoft's continued recognition, and Windows 7 alignment to eMazzanti's goals are prime examples of how eMazzanti excels in its field.

Dave McClure Talks About The Elephant in the Room

Keynote at July 21 CTO Roundtable Looks at Asian Tech Development and Where Outsourcing Fits In

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) July 10, 2009 -- "With cash tight, and innovators determined to push forward with product development, outsourcing is an obvious option that isn't discussed openly enough." says Dave McClure, self-proclaimed geek and the force behind Startonomics, Startup2Startup, Founders Fund, and Geeks on a Plane.

Just back from his tech tour of China and Japan, McClure is fired up and ready to talk about the elephant in the room. "I have a fresh view of the talent and business activities going on in China and Japan, and I want to use that to take an honest look at how young tech companies should look to build out their resources."

With cash tight, and innovators determined to push forward with product development, outsourcing is an obvious option that isn't discussed openly enough.
Interested CTO's, VP's of Engineering, and Entrepreneurs can join him at a roundtable dinner on July 21 in San Jose. McClure will lead a conversation with panelists Elliott Ng (VP of Marketing of UpTake; founder of CNReviews.com); Stan Kwong (former head of worldwide developer marketing for IBM); and Gary Swart (CEO from developer community oDesk).

Dinner will follow the panel discussion, and each table has a moderator with direct experience in cross-border tech development - executives from Google, Adobe, and Institute for the Future who will keep conversations going among attendees. Details and registration, limited to 48, are at http://morewithless.eventbrite.com.

The roundtable dinner is organized by The China Business Network - which will compile the evening's conversation into a white paper. The evening's sponsor is Symbio, an advanced software and engineering company with research and implementation centers in Greater China and Northern Europe.

Randy Lee, General Manager for Symbio says, "Since 1994, we have been in the business of product co-creation. Silicon Valley is where most of the world's great applications are conceived. I want to invite Valley executives to consider that China-based resources can accelerate time to market, minimize cost, and open up Asian markets for their products."

The China Business Network http://thechinabusinessnetwork.com is a membership organization that helps everyone working between China and the west to be more successful. TCBN connects its members with online tools and offline events; provides individuals with the means to share insights, exchange ideas, and find the resources they need to succeed.
