 Internet technologies open a new world for business-to-business electronic commerce, and topping Robert Moskowitz's to-do list is the Automotive Network eXchange (ANX), being created by the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG). ANX is a TCP/IP network that the automotive industry will use for trading-partner communication. It soon will select an overseer who will certify and monitor Internet service providers

Ahead of Moskowitz is the pilot and rollout of ANX, which demands deployment of multiple security technologies to ensure the privacy and integrity of the trading partners' communication. n Millennium Forecast: High-frequency and high-bandwidth spread-spectrum radio community networks that can supply 10-Mbps transmissions to every home, and when coupled with Internet telephony, will produce real local-loop competition. n Millennium Disturbance: Global Positioning System (GPS) failures in October 1999 when the satellites' week counters roll over. Network time, critical for security systems, will be inconsistent at best. Car: 1995 Dodge RAM

Data deduplication is emerging as a critically important new arrow in the storage administrator's quiver to answer hard questions about the increasing problem in storage growth costs.
Compression, Encryption, Deduplication, and Replication: Strange Bedfellows
One of the great ironies of storage technology is the inverse relationship between efficiency and security: Adding performance or reducing storage requirements almost always results in reducing the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of a system.
WAN Optimization Whitelists and Blacklists
Optimization is a fantastic way of saving money and creating really happy customers at the same time, but it doesn't work flawlessly for all applications.
