Too bad, you’re getting it anyway.
Actually it’s an interesting story on the Avaya’s World Cup NOC, and the network and employees deployed throughout Germany “so that information such as travel schedules and the latest red cards can be immediately gathered, filed and sent out to commentators, coaches, reporters and FIFA’s World Cup Web site,” writes the AP.
What caught our eye immediately is that the command center is tricked out with a 42-inch plasma monitor. Color us jealous.
Really interesting stuff on how the staff is keeping information flowing and, more importantly, how it’s keeping the network safe as it’s a worldwide hacker target and at the mercy of stupid reporters.
“Constant vigilance is needed to guard against network intrusions from the outside and the threat of viruses being mistakenly introduced on the inside by staffers and journalists who are plugging their own laptops in the network.”
Good read here.
