Brownfield networks are a challenge under average circumstances and potentially a large insider threat under the worst of circumstances. Brownfield networks are legacy networks that have been in service for such a long time they resemble the proverbial ball of yarn. Years of design and redesign, combined with a common “just get it running” operational mindset, create an infrastructure where no one person understands the true (not theoretical) network state. Adding to the challenges are the ongoing flux of operational and personnel shifts that make it hard to keep track of access to critical systems and result in large security, operational and regulatory exposure. An IT employee, for example, may perform a routine change to one portion of the network and inadvertently create a security hole into another part of the network thereby making the entire network vulnerable to a black hat attack.

The transaction extends Oracle's business intelligence capabilities to offer the most comprehensive system for enterprise performance management. Over the past few years, Oracle has significantly reoriented our business intelligence product strategy, shifting our focus from offering a solution that works for Oracle-only environments towards offering a best-of-breed business intelligence and performance management product family that will work with heterogeneous information sources in an enterprise, both Oracle and non-Oracle. The acquisition of Hyperion extends our business intelligence product strategy. Customers are increasingly using performance management and business intelligence together.
After the acquisition, we introduced a new product family called Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition Plus.
JAGWIRE Blog. Social media success stories and strategies featured prominently in this year’s PRSA 2012 International Conference in San Francisco from October 13-16, 2012.

Reflections on the PRSA International Conference in the City By The Bay. Ric Pratte posted on The Meltwater Group Blog: ”…Social media has had a dramatic influence on public relations.
Transparency, trust, crowdsourcing and storytelling are just a few of the hot new themes in our profession…Another popular theme was the blurring lines of public relations and marketing…Storytelling, one could say, has become the alchemist that transforms corporate speak into interesting, value-adding reading material.” PRNewswire posted nine stories on its “Beyond PR” blog “Exploring Modern Communications with PR Newswire at PRSA 2012 International Conference:” Contact JAGWIRE.

Is the tech industry headed for bubble number two? That was the burning question for those who gathered at the Automattic Lounge on Pier 38 in San Francisco last Thursday. The answer appears to be no — or at least there are no signs of it yet –according to a panel of venture capitalists and entrepreneurs brought together by the law firm Dorsey & Whitney who sponsored the event “Are We All Blowing Another Bubble?” Those of us in the audience who were in tech PR and marketing during the last dot-com boom, breathed an audible sigh of relief. The panel was moderated by Owen Thomas, executive editor of VentureBeat. The most popular kids right now just happen to be companies in the social media space such as Facebook, FourSquare, Groupon and Zynga.
So how do entrepreneurs create a bidding war these days? Original Venture Capitalists.
