Edison analysts put the management software of an HP EVA system through a series of typical day-to-day storage management tasks. The same tasks were also evaluated on similar systems from NetApp and EMC. This study demonstrates how the superior user interface and virtualization offered by the HP EVA storage system can provide organizations with the benefits of higher administrative efficiency combined with the potential ability to utilize less expensive human resources.

A three-year project to infuse privacy controls into identity technologies and emerging social networking communities is being undertaken by IBM Research with funding help from the European Union.
The intent is to create technology to ensure users can protect their privacy online for their entire lifetime, especially given the rising popularity of social networks and virtual communities.
PrimeLife (Privacy and Identity Management in Europe for Life) is a three-year research project funded by the European Union’s Seventh Research Framework Program, one in a series of programs the EU has established to provide financial support for research and development across various scientific disciplines
The group has seeded IBM’s Zurich Research Lab with 10 million euros. The lab is coordinating the research, which involves 14 other partners from various countries, including Brown University in the United States.
IBM Research says it hopes to create a “toolbox” that amounts to an electronic data manager that gives users an overview of which personal data they use when, where and how. Users would be able to define default privacy settings and preferences for many applications and would receive prompts if applications seek data for any other purpose.
(Compare identity management products.)
“The project aims to provide some technology to address these problems,” said Jan Camenisch, the PrimeLife technical project leader and research staff member for cryptography at IBM’s Zurich Research Lab. “PrimeLife will interact with the open source community, standardization bodies, as well as other projects so that they can pick up our technology.”
PrimeLife builds on another EU project called Prime (Privacy and Identity Management for Europe), an effort to develop a working prototype of a privacy-enhancing identity management system.
Camenisch said current standards and protocols either address privacy in a very limited way or not at all. The aim will be to integrate PrimeLife’s privacy-enhancing technologies with those standards and protocols, such as the Security Assertion Markup Language.
