CISCO OT/IT NETWORK SOLUTIONS FOR BUSINESS CONTINUITY AND AS A BARRIER TO RANSOWARE ATTACKS

11/04/2024 |

Breakfast with Cisco and a solid dose of knowledge about the security of OT and IT systems - November 29, 2024, Poznań Concordia Design

I am registering for the meeting "CISCO SOLUTIONS FOR OT/IT NETWORKS IN MAINTAINING BUSINESS CONTINUITY AND AS A BARRIER TO RANSOWARE ATTACKS".

>>> GO DIRECTLY TO THE APPLICATION FORM!

The event will take place on November 29, 2024 (Friday) in Concordia Design in Poznań at ul. Zwierzyniecka 3. The aim of the meeting is to provide participants with knowledge about the construction and design of networks in the specific environment of an industrial plant, taking into account aspects such as reliability, resistance to interference and cyber threats.

Why are industrial networks critical to businesses?

High downtime costs and increasingly tighter integration of IT (information) and OT (operational) systems in production halls force companies to implement solutions supporting the continuity of production processes, including protection against ransomware attacks. Attacks on factories in the automotive, chemical, food and pharmaceutical industries indicate the interest of ransomware groups in integrated IT/OT systems as well as PLC and SCADA.

Why is it worth attending our meeting?

Because the presentations will be conducted by experienced specialists from Cisco Polska:

  • Michał Małuszek, Industrial Automation and IIOT Sales Specialist, EMEA, Cisco

TECHNOLOGY BREAKFAST WITH CISCO – CISCO SD-WAN, ENTERPRISE NETWORKING AND CISCO ACI – POZNAŃ, OCTOBER 4, 2023

09/15/2023 |

Technology breakfast with Cisco – SD-WAN, Enterprise Networking and Cisco ACI – Poznań, October 4, 2023

Cisco Systems is the most recognizable company dealing in network solutions. Cisco is also a technological leader and co-creator of standards used in IT. Technologies such as SD-WAN or Spine & Leaf are increasingly appearing in Polish enterprises. That's why it's worth hearing about Cisco SD-WAN and Cisco ACI to stay up to date and keep abreast of changes.

We invite you, together with Cisco Polska and Ingram Micro, to the "Technology Breakfast with Cisco", which will take place on October 4 in Poznań. More information in the invitation and agenda -> Cisco 2023-Q3 – Technology Breakfast | UpGreat & Ingram Micro Poland. Let's talk technology!

In addition to refreshing the Cisco product portfolio, during which we will talk about the latest switches, routers and wireless access points (including WiFi 6e) and their management, we will discuss key Cisco SD-WAN and Cisco ACI technologies.

Below is a short introduction.

What is Cisco SD-WAN?

Due to the digitization of enterprise branches, the increasing complexity of IT systems, the need to access the services of multiple cloud service providers and finally security challenges, the traditional WAN architecture has become insufficient.

SD-WAN (Software Defined WAN) mechanisms enable easy and automated network reconfiguration and adding another Internet connection to existing hundreds of connections, and then optimizing its use thanks to intelligent routing. In SD-WAN networks, we optimally use our connections, according to the current application requirements. Configuration automation mechanisms also guarantee IT security by eliminating staff errors. SD-WAN makes it simply easier, better and faster.

Why Cisco ACI?

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) is the answer to the increasing complexity of data centers. Dozens of hosts, hundreds of virtual machines, hundreds of network services, many cloud service providers and an extensive wide-area network structure are quite a challenge for designers and administrators. ACI provides tools for automating network configuration, optimizes the implementation and operation of many applications, supports the effective use of cloud services, guarantees zero-trust security configurations and provides tools for visualizing and monitoring network operation. The physical structure of Cisco ACI network connections follows the spine and leaf topology.

Reserve your time and we invite you to register -> Cisco 2023-Q3 – Technology Breakfast | UpGreat & Ingram Micro Poland.
