Maintaining data security is a top priority for any organization. Secure Sockets Layer certificates—usually called SSL certificates—are an important part of this effort. SSL certificates are small data files designed to prevent hackers from getting access to private business data as it passes between a website and a visitor’s browser.

As the number of wireless networks explodes, detecting, managing, and maintaining your Wi-Fi can become problematic. When everyone around you is blasting their own Wi-Fi signals—particularly in large business complexes with lots of other large companies—you’re more likely to experience problems with Wi-Fi signals dropping out, poor connectivity, and slow performance.

The Software as a Service (SaaS) era is ending—at least, that’s what some online observers have been suggesting of late. In a recent post on X, Sam Lessing, a General Partner (GP) at Slow Ventures, challenged the long-held belief that SaaS is the pinnacle of software business models. Forbes recently took up Lessing's claim in an article entitled The End of the SaaS Era: Rethinking Software's Role in Business. So, are we really witnessing the death of SaaS?

Managing a network can be daunting, especially as your infrastructure grows in size and complexity. Fortunately, network management software can help you monitor, manage, and optimize your network, ensuring everything runs smoothly. This post will explore the seven best network management software tools available today. After, we’ll dive into a comprehensive guide on network management to help you understand its importance and how to choose the right tool for your needs.

The way we manage, qualify, and utilize our data is constantly tested. With the amount of information we have at our disposal, managing and ensuring data quality has become a strategic lever for companies striving for excellence. How can we ensure our data management is flawless and the data quality on which we base our decisions is optimal? This is where data observability becomes an essential component.

Logs are essential for understanding and optimizing performance, and MongoDB structured logging makes them more powerful. By organizing logs into a consistent format, we can query and analyze them more efficiently. However, dealing with logs locally has its limits. That’s where a centralized log management tool like SolarWinds Loggly comes in. Shipping MongoDB logs to SolarWinds Loggly gives you a unified view of your data, advanced analytics, and proactive monitoring.

From financial records and client contracts to internal communications, organizations transfer files and sensitive data daily. A secure file transfer solution has always been non-negotiable, but it’s more critical than ever amidst the rise of data breaches and cyberattacks. For many years, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) was the standard. However, its outdated security measures and lack of encryption make it vulnerable to cyber threats, leaving shared data at risk of interception and misuse.

Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), also known as SSH File Transfer Protocol, is a robust, encrypted method for transferring files across networks, designed as a more secure alternative to traditional File Transfer Protocol (FTP). Essential for industries handling sensitive data—like finance and healthcare—SFTP protects against unauthorized access and enables efficient file management, making it a critical tool for remote access and data protection.

Knowing what’s happening in your network infrastructure is essential so you can stay on top of issues before they affect users. With the right network monitoring tools, you can track, analyze, and optimize your network’s health and performance and get real-time visibility into traffic, device conditions, and overall infrastructure performance. This post will explore the seven best network monitoring tools and guide you through the nitty-gritty of network performance monitoring.
