- Tenuous Chains Of Trust In Digital Certificates
By Mike Fratto, Editor
Hot on the heels of RSA suffering an attack of unknown origin and resulting in a loss of unknown data with an unknown impact, news that a certificate authority, Comodo Inc, issued nine fraudulent certificates which browser vendors and OS vendors have had to issue a patch for, highlights the fragility of the security systems that protect your data in transit across the Internet. In Comodo's case, neither the root CA nor any of their systems were compromised, according to their own incident report. Rather, one of their customers, a registration authority, was compromised. It appears the compromise was quickly caught and Comodo started working with vendors to get a fix in place. It's time to once again question who we trust and why we trust them.

- Only The Blocks That Have Changed And Other Platitudes
By Howard Marks
Many of the technologies we've come to rely on in the storage world nowadays use one form or another of changed block tracking. Snapshots, replication (especially the point in time kind), automated tiering and data deduplication all work by identifying changed, or different, blocks and treating them in some special way. The problem is that while parts may be parts, blocks are most definitely not blocks.

- IBM Pulse2011 Conference: Helping Enterprises Get Smarter
By David Hill
Yogi Berra is attributed with the quote, "This is like deja vu all over again," and that is what last week's IBM Pulse2011 conference in Las Vegas felt like. The event had the same title "The Premier Service Management Event" and the subtitle "Optimizing the World's Infrastructure," as well as essentially the same message with some exceptions, such as an emphasis on Smarter Computing, as last year's conference. But that is not a bad thing. As was noted many times during Pulse2011, integrated service management is a journey. For most enterprises, that journey takes much longer than a year, so staying the course is important.
