A considerable number of lawyers are embracing tablets in the workplace. A recent American Bar Association (“ABA”) legal technology survey conducted in July 2012 reported that 33 percent of all attorneys surveyed are using a tablet for law-related tasks. Of such 33 percent of tablet users, 91 percent surveyed have purchased an iPad. This is a trend that is certain to flourish as mobile legal solutions give lawyers more opportunities to work outside of the office, which in turn will increase their productivity and ability to access important documents from any location.

A growing number of academic institutions across the globe are embracing the iPad and gaining significant momentum in the education market. If the trend continues, it’s looking like the iPad could be the most influential thing to enter the educational electronics market since the overhead projector.

According to leading market research firm iSuppli, for the first time since 2001, the total personal computer “PC” market is projected to regress 1.2% compared to last year. The back to school movement this year has left something to be desired according to Consumer Reports. The planned purchasing measures for back to school products are down, leaving some companies wondering what’s in store for 2013.

The corporate computing environment has changed dramatically over the last few years, and the Internet is now an essential business resource, giving employees access to powerful applications and downloads. This is helpful as it makes work easier, but can ultimately introduce new security challenges for the IT department.

“Offline Mode” is becoming a common feature included in most software. Depending on whose “offline mode” you are using, there are many definitions. For some, it is for those painful, but rare times when you do not have access to the Internet. For others, it is for when you lose connection to your office’s network. And yet for most, it is a term that is associated with disaster recovery. Let’s clarify.

These days licensing your products can be one of the most tedious tasks as a Network Administrator. As one of the people in charge of demonstrating our product, I am questioned all the time in regards to how licensing works.  In respect to triCerat products, there are two different licensing schemes: per server (also known as standalone) and concurrent licenses.

Companies in the past have provided a limited selection of laptops and smartphones that range from bland to boring while employees have secretly wanted to bring in their own fast, stylish, and customizable smartphones, netbooks, or iPads. But in the last three years, IT departments are no longer able to force a particular set of mobile solutions on end users. Employees often expect to be able to use their smartphones and iPads and synchronize them with their work equipment to increase productivity and mobility.

Cash is still short, unemployment rates are rocky, and the future is a bit hairy, but can you afford to sit back and expect more from your workers knowing they are grateful to have a job and won't complain?

Migrating to a new operating system is much like moving into a larger house. How so? While the house is larger, and may have many more features to suit your growing and changing lifestyle, there are still going to be problems – a leaky roof, a missing window screen, a squeaky floorboard. However, overall it is still better than your previous home.

Trusting, Planning, Goal Setting

There is a big question that may be looming when considering remote location employment. How can I know my employee isn’t taking advantage of this untethered freedom?

Great video featuring triCerat's Salim Ruffin at Synergy 2011 in San Francisco, California.
Times are changing. Fast. The ‘typical’ job has traditionally consisted of a nine to five workday at a single corporate office where all employees commute to five days a week. Maybe there are small deviations from the rule where an employee can choose to come in at 8am and leave at 4pm.  Perhaps a full hour is permitted for lunch, or perhaps it isn’t. Regardless of the details, the orthodox work schedule has had very little margin for freedom—until now.

There are probably two questions on your mind after reading the title of this blog: 1) that’s possible? and 2) why would I want to do that?

The term “hacker“ always seems to be associated with that person who intends to maliciously destroy a network without a care in the world. What everyone fails to realize is that there are two different kinds of hackers in the world: White Hat and Black Hat. Black Hat hackers are the ones you hear about all the time that cause destruction, chaos, and large headaches. These guys are on the outside coming in with intent to destroy or gather information to benefit themselves. A White Hat hacker is someone who is typically hired to come in and do “penetration testing” to find any vulnerability on the network, assess any damage, and create fixes.

I came across a very interesting article not too long ago. It’s about an app for the iPad that allows you to use VMware View on it, not some knock off version of it with limited functionality, but the full blown client developed by VMware.
One of the most informative and under used Windows troubleshooting utilities is the Microsoft System Information (msinfo) utility. This particular report is a text-based snapshot of not only hardware, but also all of the Windows operating system installed applications. This utility has been a part of the Windows operating systems since “Windows 3.1 for Workgroups,” for those of you old enough to remember. It is still available in the most currently used workstations (Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7) and server operating systems (Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008).
triCerat removed the bandwidth throttling option from ScrewDrivers. There were several factors in the decision to remove the throttling option. 

Drawbacks of bandwidth throttling:
  • Vast majority of our users did not use the function at all.
  • When properly configured, low bandwidth users must wait very long times for large print jobs.

After finishing the courses “Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems” and “Firewalls” my views on network security and how to implement it have changed drastically.

Alright, so you just went through a hardware upgrade in the company. You have all those new shiny PCs and your distributing them to your users. It’s usually a really fun time – who doesn’t like shiny new hardware? At first, it’s great! But as the weeks go by and you look over in the corner of the server room or hardware store room, you remember you still have those dusty old PCs to take care of, and you groan. I’d groan too because, just as much as the next IT person, I hate getting rid of old hardware when it’s still functional! So what do you do?

In an environment with one computer, a user’s profile is stored locally to that one machine and every time the user logs in the desktop and their files are just as they left them.

You have a bunch of servers that you manage while you’re in the office. You can usually just walk into the datacenter and work on them through a console or RDP to them from your workstation. But let’s be honest, servers don’t only have problems during the hours that you’re in the office. So you need to find a solution, or multiple solutions, to manage these servers remotely.

Though it may seem like a simple task, checking operating system versions is often overlooked and can cause issues with software installation and integration. With many companies now slowly migrating from XP/2003 to Win7/2008, there are a lot of people who are getting a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit in their environment.

As many of you know, our Simplify products require a SQL database in order to operate. I recently received an email from Microsoft as part of the TechNet subscription that stated a new Service Pack is available for the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 software.

Recently, Google admitted that the fleet of vehicles taking panoramic photographs for its “Street View” mapping service around the globe inadvertently collected emails and passwords of computer users on unsecured wireless networks. While this collection of data was strictly accidental, it certainly raises the question: how vulnerable are computer users?
