Last year, we announced our partnership with the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to work on the Implementing a Zero Trust Architecture project. After a year of collaboration with its industry partners, including Ivanti, NIST recently released its preliminary draft, NIST Cybersecurity Practice Guide SP 1800-35 Vol B, for public comment.

A recent news report shows the federal government is struggling significantly more than the private sector when recruiting new employees. Axios reporter Emily Peck writes: “While the number of private-sector jobs surpassed its pre-pandemic level, there are 664,000 fewer people employed in the public sector, according to the government jobs report released .” Peck speculates this disparity can be attributed to the inflexibility of government work.

With an increased shift to hybrid and remote work environments, IT teams have had to adapt their support models to meet the evolving needs of their organization at a rapid pace. For most IT organizations, the programming effort required to customize less flexible software solutions to meet the changing demands of the business can often be expensive and slow-moving.

Now that the world has embraced the long-term shift to the Everywhere Workplace, what do workers really think about it? That’s what we sought to find out with an ambitious survey that led to an eye-opening rendition of our annual Everywhere Workplace report. It also led to a big award.

Business objectives for IT management have fundamentally shifted. Traditionally, organizations imposed a heavy-hand over the types of IT resources their workers employ and how they will use them. However, over the past decade or so, a growing awareness has supplanted these antiquated approaches suggesting technology should conform to the needs of the workers, rather than the other way around.

As the world enters the post-pandemic era, employers and IT teams face a variety of new challenges. Some should be high on the long-term priority list. Others need to be addressed immediately. Here’s a snapshot of what we’re facing: Addressing one or two of these challenges isn’t enough. Success for the Everywhere Workplace means IT navigating all these challenges – and more – simultaneously amid considerable uncertainty.

We’re delighted to share that Ivanti has been named a leader in the Omdia Universe Enterprise Service Management (ESM) Report for 2022-2023 . Omdia’s annual report aims to evaluate high-quality ESM solutions available in the market to support both IT and business leaders in selecting the right ESM platform that best meets their needs and long-term goals.

Organizations cannot rely on a single source of data on which to base their entire cybersecurity strategy – particularly their vulnerability management programs. Case in point: The National Vulnerability Database, or NVD. This publicly available database of known vulnerabilities covers an enormous array of all the different vulnerabilities that currently affect applications, software and hardware applications.

The invasion of Ukraine has been difficult to watch, and unimaginable to live through. While the primary global focus is, as it should be, on peace and safety, it’s also critical for enterprises to prepare for the likely inevitable Russian cyberattacks.
