Trevor Dearing, EMEA Markting Manager, Gigamon

“One of the key things that we are seeing at GITEX this year,” says Trevor Dearing, EMEA Markting Manager, “is really the growth of awareness in the issues around security.” If you look at a lot of the booths, Dearing points out, there are

a lot of new exciting security analytics and forensics. One of the things with that type of technology is that it is not easy to implement it all at the same time. “What we are doing is to make it much easier – we makes these things work much better.”

Gigamon’s aim is to streamline a sometimes jumbled landscape. 4 CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

“GigaSecure allows the user to certain things once, which means you don’t have to do it for all of your other devices,” says Dearing. The technology allows for the detection of malware and the lateral movement of malware, detection of exfiltration activity, post incident forensics, as well as other security initiatives.

“The other piece is that we can then generate net flow.

We can generate unsampled net flow, and from a security perspective, that means that you can get the full picture.”

Dubai Smart Government Department unveils CloudOne

Dubai Smart Government Department (DSG) has announced the launch of CloudOne, a smart infrastructure cloud service for Dubai government entities, during its participation at this year’s edition of GITEX Technology Week 2015.

According to DSG, the initiative follows the vision and directives of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to prioritise government integration and provide optimal leverage of government resources.

DSG highlights that a shared

smart infrastructure will allow all Dubai government entities to easily access Information Technology (IT) resources – saving them money and effort from establishing these resources individually.

H.E. Ahmad Bin Humaidan, Director General, Dubai Smart Government Department, said, “The platform offers a flexible, virtual operating environment to serve every government entity instead of having to own separate IT infrastructures. The launch of CloudOne is a practical step amongst many, which DSG is taking to achieve its strategy of

offering world-class, innovative enablers for government entities to achieve successful smart transformation and efficient internal operation management through the optimal use of the latest ICT smart solutions, which have always been a key source for innovation across the private sector.”

Humaidan further underlines that CloudOne enables the required capacity to be obtained in a record time of no more than 24 hours, saving the time and effort of government entities and helping them focus on innovation in government services without

According to him, government entities can also benefit from DSG’s distinctive experiences and the updated components of CloudOne, which DSG will continue to update in line with technology cycles.

CloudOne is a pool of computing devices including CPUs, RAM, HDDs space, network services and security systems and firewalling. DSG highlights that it can also provide IT services as per the needs of government entities, such as multi-tenant processing of data, memory, storage and networks.

Another key feature of CloudOne, according to DSG, is its capability of providing ondemand access and control of networks, servers, storage, and security, in addition to maximum asset utilisation. It also has a shared disaster recovery site (SDRS) which integrates the systems of 28 local government entities. In addition, CloudOne has a messaging and collaboration system, which is an integrated system of unified messaging and collaboration services across Dubai government entities, which currently connects 36 government entities and hosts 26 government sites online.
