Any business that processes, stores, and transmits cardholder account data must comply with this complex new standard, and must be able to demonstrate that compliance through automated and manual audits of their systems. This white paper looks at the key challenges and requirements of PCI DSS as it relates to Microsoft Windows and Active Directory, and shows you how a third-party software solution can help with PCI compliance.

There are many compelling reasons for virtualizing Windows and Linux applications. Virtualization improves server utilization by allowing you to run multiple workloads on a single physical server. It reduces the number of physical servers you have to maintain, while allowing you to use less physical space and power while still improving scalability. All of these capabilities translate directly into lower costs, less complexity, and greater flexibility in your mixed IT environment.

One of my newsletters from last week on the wisdom of retaining old e-mail generated some interesting comments. Here's a sampling:
“As a records manager, I have no problem with keeping e-mail with valuable content as long as it is useful, but why keep a decade plus of all that other ‘stuff’ that has no value? When litigation comes (and it will come) someone will have to sort through all of it…and search tools are only of limited use. Besides, while storage itself may be ‘cheap’ (debatable), the cost of supporting that storage is not. At 25+ terabytes and counting, I know that many of my legal department colleagues and I are looking forward to some serious deletion.”
“Could you please comment on things like Voice Mail and Fax? In many systems these are now attachments to e-mails....or are purposely kept separate ‘so we don't need to retain them.’ Doesn't the Federal Rules for Civil Procedures treatment of ESI [Electronically Stored Information] make that ‘keep it separate’ thinking dangerous for all the same reasons you've discussed here in regards to e-mail?”
These comments point to two important issues with which all companies will have to deal: a) making sure that you’ve specified the right amount of storage and the technologies that can manage all of the content you’ll need to store, and b) that you preserve everything you might need for e-discovery, regulatory compliance or other purposes. That includes not only e-mail and instant messages, but all of the other content you might need, including voicemails, faxes, data on file servers, data in collaboration systems, etc.
