What is Servers Develop Cavities in router installation

 Taking care of your servers is like taking care of your teeth. Practice routine maintenance, and you keep things healthy. Let things slide, and you end up with major problems. For teeth, that means cavities or gum disease. For servers, that means unpatched vulnerabilities and potential data breaches.


Of course, just because you know you should take care of your teeth doesn’t mean it’s easy to get into the habit of doing it. And the same is true for taking care of your server patches. There are several challenges:

Tracking systems to be patched. When it comes to caring for your teeth, at least you know how many you have and where to find them. When it comes to servers, routers, and other systems that need to be patched, it isn’t that easy. Systems get added, removed, and shifted to new locations. You may have a wide variety of devices from a similarly wide variety of vendors. Getting it all recorded in a usable format and keeping the record current just doesn’t always happen. Along with tracking each system, you need to keep track of which patches have been installed on them.
Tracking patches to be installed. Tracking the patches to be installed is the flip side of tracking components, and it’s equally as challenging. There’s a steady stream of patch notifications from vendors, along with assessments of criticality. Some patches are released on a regular schedule, while others come at random. Some patches have their own problems and are later superseded by yet another patch.

Executing patch installation. Assuming you’ve tracked everything properly, you need to find the time to install the patches on every system that needs the update. Some systems may be difficult to access, especially if they’re in a remote location. Before you execute the patch installation, you need to test the process and make sure the patch doesn’t have any negative effect on your systems. Unless you’ve got an automated system, all of this can be time consuming and pull your staff away from other priorities—especially when an installation goes wrong.

Everything You Need to Know About 5G

  The latest CES 2019 set some trends for the future of technology and one of the most anticipated is the arrival of 5G Internet in the market. With the promise of being extremely fast and with double capacity for information transmission, the technology comes to revolutionize communication between everything connected to the internet. After the event, some innovation gurus say that from 2020 onwards we will live the “Data Age”, in which any electronic device will be able to analyze data that will be received via sensors or cloud. The big advantage of the 5G will be its simultaneous connection capability as the current 4G can handle a maximum of 10,000 gadgets within 1 km 2 . The arrival of 5G guarantees a range of 1 million devices within this same radius. And just as importantly, 5G will also bring data transfer capacity of up to 20gb, while 4G supports up to 10gb. And do you know where 5G technology will take immediate action? Obviously in smart cars, which are the future of transpo

Network Security: LAN manager authentication level

In windows server 2008, if we go to Network Security: LAN manager authentication level(gpedit.msc -> Computer Configuration -> WindowsSettings -> SecuritySettings LocalPolicies -> securityoptions ) and right click on it, we cannot change the value of the authentication level. It is greyed out. To change this we need to go to following registry entry.. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel and set the value. LmCompatibilityLevel should be 0 for Send LM & NTLM responses 1 for Send LM & NLTM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated 2 for Send NTLM response only 3 for Send NTLMv2 response only 4 for Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM 5 for Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM & NTLM know more :  lan manager authentication level

Five technology trends for 2019

Even as new technologies are developed, innovation around the application of existing technology is rapidly changing how organisations operate and how we interact with the world. Leaps in computing capacity, data capture and connectivity are accelerating this change. Here are five areas to watch in 2019 and beyond… Artificial intelligence AI is about machines with human attributes - speaking, reading, seeing and even recognising emotion - completing tasks while also "learning" from repeated interactions. Using algorithms that adapt to location, speech or user-history machines can perform tasks that are dangerous or tedious, more accurately or much faster than humans. Within a few years, analysts predict that all software will use AI at some level, according to US research and advisory firm Gartner. Importantly AI offers the opportunity to continuously tailor products and services providing a competitive advantage over rivals that is not easily copied. The question
