Telstra this morning launched a multi-million dollar network operations centre to manage the enterprise networks of 1,100 corporate Telstra customers who have paid for the premium service.
Networking giant Cisco has published a raft of security advisories as part of its biannual patch-release schedule.
Cisco Systems this week said it was looking for Australian customers to trial the beta version of the Nexus 1000V distributed virtual software switch which it developed with VMware and announced earlier today.
San Francisco officials are reportedly trying to find a device on the city's computer network that was allegedly left there by an IT worker who was jailed for refusing to divulge passwords to the city network
Security researchers have warned of an underlying security issue concerning the Border Gateway Protocol, the core internet routing protocol.
There's no such thing as a free lunch, so the old adage goes -- but is there such a thing as free Wi-Fi? Wi-Fi sharing company Fon thinks it has the answer, as does Google-backed start-up Meraki.
What's the first thing you look at when you check into a hotel room? The bed? The view? The minibar?
It appears that employees of Australian telcos are not immune to the sweet, sweet lure of staying up till after midnight watching the soccer.
Most Australians have never heard the name "Tellabs", a company that has only seven employees Down Under.
If you ran a software company and an independent security researcher contacted you with proof that your product contains security vulnerabilities, how would you react?
In 2020, datacentres are estimated to be cleaner, greener and more flexible but will they be any safer?
At NICTA's recent Techfest conference, researchers from National ICT Australia (NICTA) get to show off the projects they have been working on all year, including facial recognition tech designed to help catch criminals as well as better algorithms and sensors for traffic control.
The idea that attacks on computer systems could provide an alternative method of spreading terror and disruption has been a concern for governments since IT systems began to proliferate.
The average datacentre lasts between 15 and 20 years, so when the current generation of datacentres near the end of their working life, will their replacements be at all familiar?
Cisco's Nick Watson discusses 802.11n, the battle with Microsoft in unified communications, and security issues with Unified Communications Manager.
Apple Time Capsule's hybrid 802.11n wireless router/networked hard drive offers some powerful data backup features for Mac owners, as well as Apple's typical pleasing design. Windows users and anyone who demands speed from their 802.11n network will be disappointed.
They're big and quite ugly, but there's no doubting that Netgear's WNHDEB111 delivers in the 802.11n speed stakes finally!
NetComm Turbo 7 Series Wireless Gateway provides an easy set-up, good coverage and modest speed. While this system gives you the advantage of portable wireless gateway, wireless services are less reliable and cannot match ADSL2 speeds.
The latest bundle of mobile technologies from Intel arrives late and somewhat piecemeal, but delivers a useful set of incremental enhancements.
The Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router bears the same sleek, antenna-free design as its sibling the WRT160N, except features a four port gigabit switch. We are a little disappointed at the lack of a USB port, which means it can't act as a print server or easily facilitate network storage. It more than makes up for these lacking features, however, with excellent performance in CNET Labs' testing.
The ReadyNAS range is a perfect addition to a household that needs not just storage, but control over that storage. Now if only Netgear could do something about the price.
