WysDM to demo DPM (Data Protection Manager) in Storage Expo 2007


WysDM Software, Inc., the leading provider of advanced data protection management (DPM) solutions, announced today that it will showcase a set of significant new features added to its WysDM for Backups™ and WysDM for Fileservers™ products at Storage Expo 2007. The conference will be held at the National Hall, Olympia, London on October 17 and 18, 2007. Additionally, WysDM's chief technology officer and co-founder, Jim McDonald, has been invited to deliver a presentation titled Minimizing Your Recovery Risk with Data Protection Management at one of the conference's business strategy tracks on October 18, 1:15-1:45 p.m.



Data protection is focused on reducing the risk of data becoming unavailable at some point in the future, however there are a number of areas where traditional data protection fails to meet business requirements. McDonald's presentation will provide a three-step strategy for ensuring that data is protected to meet both internal and external risk management requirements, and allow businesses to attain and maintain a minimal risk profile.



"We look forward to demonstrating our data protection management solutions at the foremost storage-focused event in the EMEA region," said Jim McDonald, CTO, WysDM. "The rapidly increasing demand we're seeing for WysDM's solutions, combined with an expanding channel of global distribution partners, demonstrates that DPM technology is gaining traction all over the world. It is clear that companies are looking for intelligent solutions such as WysDM's that will enable them to excel at compliance and risk mitigation while reducing their workload and minimizing their security concerns."

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS.

Our frozen chi's and the Workfloor

I left home when I was 20. I had studied Physics(Major) and had no idea what to do next. I took to the seas, I think looking back it was more like a refuge, an asylum. Seeking to get away from all that peer pressure, myself and what not. 1991 June 7, around midnight I arrive in Lagos, Nigeria. Company agent ships me to the nearby hotel to wait for my first “boat”. That's the first time in my life I saw a lot of people , a race totally different from ours. I was warned to be careful, protect my wallet, but they came across as just about any other regular folk. That was my “first encounter”. Funny, since then I have worked with all kinds of nationalities (Japanese, Chinese, Malaysians, Indonesians, Dutch, Scandinavians, Thai, Americans, Spanish, Argentinians,..I can go on and on). What I have learned in all that is that we are all so much alike. But on board a ship it is “ really ” different. Your job is crucial and you must work together. That makes you accept each other realistica...

I'm the slave to my own undoings I'm the jester in my courtyard We jest as we run We're strolling on that thin rope we grope as we rope we're true heros we're the survivors we're the scavengers we're the friends we're the lovers we're the unbred Soon awaiting the fall we're lurking on us we're osedaxing us we're soon going to be done we'll soon be arrested *osedax(bone devourer, newly discovered marine genus) feeds on a fallen(sunken) whale carcass(which is also called a whale fall).
