Network Computing's IT Exam

Built by Greenwich Technology Partners [more]
July 2005 The ROI of Asset Management
Effective asset management can help organizations save big on their budgets. However most companies don't even have a good picture of what all of their assets are, or where they are. Our IT exam will help you determine if you ready for this undertaking.
April 2005 Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Infrastructure Management (IM)
There has been a lot of discussion in the past few years on IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) Service Management processes. ITIL based service support and service delivery implementations are dramatically increasing the productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness of IT organizations throughout the world. One of the foundations for service management is Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Infrastructure Management (IM). Take this quiz to test your knowledge of ICT IM.
March 2005 Voice over IP Security
Businesses deploy Voice over IP (VOIP) services to enable new business applications, lower toll costs and better utilize data network services. With these new capabilities come security exposures that many operations are ill-prepared to address. Take this quiz to test your own VoIP security IQ.
February 2005 The ROI of Server Consolidation
The premise is simple--collapse multiple under-utilized servers into a bigger server (virtualization) and save a ton of money--right? Well, maybe. Take our interactive exam to find out if your company is ready for consolidation.
January 2005 The Command Center
Do you know the main characteristics and goals of a Network Operations Center (NOC) or Command Center? Does it focus on help desk issues, or does it consist solely of network and systems monitoring? Take our IT Exam to find out if your company is fully and correctly using its version of the Bat Cave.
December 2004 Application Security
Put your application security savvy to the test with our new IT Exam. Do you know how many vulnerabilities lurk within 1,000 lines of code? Do you know which application attack method is most common and most effective? Let us rate your current readiness and know-how.
November 2004 The ROI of VoIP
Test the state of your convergence readiness with our self-scoring IT Exam. We'll take you through the five key questions which will allow you to determine if VoIP is right for your organization now or in the future.
October 2004 Test Your Knowledge of IT Service Management
What is IT Service Management? This quiz will provide an opportunity for you to reflect on where you or your organization?s ITSM current state, knowledge, planning, and implementation and will provide you some insight on where you need to progress. The source material used here comes from the IT Infrastructure Library (ITILTM), a widely recognized collection of service management best. Greenwich Technology Partners has been a planner and implementation leader in ITSM and Enterprise Management for many years, advocating responsible expenditure of resources.
June 2003 Identity and Access Management
Identity management is an emerging technology. Its goal is to consolidate the user authentication and authorization into a single repository hence streamlining the administration, to centralize disparate identity administration functions (multiple user stores, inconsistent access control rules, self service, and delegated administrators). This quiz is intended to ask the necessary questions to start you thinking about this problem.
March 2003 Security event and asset risk management preparedness
Today, organizations are inundated with events from their security architecture components (network and host intrusion detection systems, Firewalls, authentications systems, platforms, and applications). To adequately assess the risk to an organization one needs to know the value of the resources and their version (e.g., Windows XP Advanced Server Build 3104, SQL Server 2002 with MSDE enabled). The analysis of security events from multiple sources combined with the value of the resource is required to take the appropriate action.
January 2003 Application Response Time
In today's corporate world, application performance and end-user happiness are usually interconnected and this often affects company's bottom line. Take our test to find out how well your company manages application response time. We'll help you pinpoint strengths and weaknesses.
October, 2002 Application Performance
Computers execute programs. Networks transfer data between programs. Application developers (rightfully) spend much of their time wrestling with the parts of their programs that users interact with. Maybe this is as it should be, but just a small amount of work addressing how the program will impact the computer and network can save tremendous amounts of money in hardware and supporting software. Lots of really slow programs have great user interfaces. The users hate them anyway.
August, 2002 Capacity Management
Capacity management is a founding discipline of computing. As computing capacity exploded and costs for resources, including cpu and memory, plummeted, there was a shift away from rigorous capacity planning. In this economic climate, wasteful spending is frowned upon and can limit careers.
April, 2002 Performance Management
Today, if an application is slow, users consider it unavailable. To offer services in this low tolerance environment, performance and capacity must be monitored. Operations should discover performance problems before users call the help desk. Capacity must be added before utilizations impact performance.
