    IDC MarketScape IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Mobile Threat Management Software 2018–2019 Vendor Assessment Phil Hochmuth IDC MARKETSCAPE FIGURE FIGURE 1 IDC MarketScape Worldwide Mobile Threat Management Software Vendor Assessment Source: IDC, 2018 Please see the Appendix for detailed methodology, market definition, and scoring criteria. December 2018, IDC #US44521018 IDC OPINION As mobile security and governance frameworks mature, mobile threat management (MTM) software tools are filling a major security gap many enterprises are discovering across one of their most pervasive technology deployments: smartphones and tablets used by employees. Many organizations see enterprise mobility management (EMM; technology which manages, configures, and monitors mobiles) as the beginning and end of their mobile endpoint security strategy. While many EMM platforms support security functions (compliance checking, VPN connectivity, data security/encryption, and device certificate management, etc.), most EMMs do not actively scan for mobile-related threats on devices. This is where MTM technology comes in, with its ability to address actively misbehaving or malicious apps, as well as OS and network-based attacks on devices. Driving many MTM early adoptions, and among more mature deployments, is the desire to deploy another layer of security to mobile end-user computing in addition to EMM. Among the more than two- dozen MTM customer interviews conducted for this document, 100% of these enterprises deployed their respective MTM products with an EMM platform; nearly all said that meeting existing or potential future compliance requirements was among the top 3 drivers behind their adoption of the technology. These requirements are driving much of the direction of the market from an MTM feature set and overall go-to-market strategy for MTM vendors.

  • Ebay Response to Carl Icahn
    February 24, 2014 eBay Inc. Responds to Carl Icahn's Feb. 24 Open Letter to Stockholders SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- New eBay shareholder Carl Icahn has cherry-picked old news clips and anecdotes out of context to attack the integrity of two of the most respected, accomplished and value-driven technology leaders in Silicon Valley. Marc Andreessen and Scott Cook bring extraordinary insight, expertise and leadership to eBay's board, which is scrupulous in its governance practices and fully transparent with regard to its directors' other affiliations and businesses. And eBay Inc. President and CEO John Donahoe is widely respected for his turnaround of eBay and leadership of the company over the past six years. As we are sure our other shareholders would agree, we prefer to engage in more constructive and substantive discussions of why, in our view, PayPal and eBay are better together. Instead, Mr. Icahn unfortunately has resorted to mudslinging attacks against two impeccably qualified directors. Mr. Icahn has nominated two of his employees to eBay's board. As we have said, the board's nominating committee will review the nominations of his employees in due course. Even if our board does not support the nominations, ultimately shareholders will decide whether they believe Mr. Icahn's employees are better qualified than directors such as Mr. Cook (Mr. Andreessen is not up for re-election this year) to sit on the board of a leading technology company. The board has been clear in its view that shareholders are best served by keeping PayPal part of eBay. The board regularly assesses all strategic options for the company; should circumstances change the board is entirely capable of evaluating alternatives for optimizing shareholder value.

  • August 4, 2021 the Honorable Charles
    August 4, 2021 The Honorable Charles Schumer The Honorable Mitch McConnell Majority Leader Republican Leader United States Senate United States Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Majority Leader Schumer and Minority Leader McConnell, We’re writing to express support for the bipartisan amendment to the infrastructure bill offered by Senator Wyden, Senator Lummis, and Senator Toomey. We share the Senators’ concern that the existing provision regarding the taxation of cryptocurrency transactions is overly broad and will sweep in non-intermediaries, such as network validators and software developers, and would stifle innovation by imposing what would be an unworkable reporting requirement on those groups. The infrastructure bill is too important to be left vulnerable to future legal challenges based on the text as currently written. This bipartisan amendment is the right solution to address these concerns in a simple way. As the leaders of the largest crypto venture fund, we are encouraged by the government’s recognition that this emerging sector is here to stay and is only growing. For diverse constituencies – from musicians, artists, and other creators to small business owners and those left out of the traditional financial system – there is so much untapped potential in crypto and blockchain. A proper regulatory strategy needs to reflect one important fact: crypto is not a monolith. The crypto universe extends far beyond its financial origins, encompassing artwork, community development, and new ways of forming organizations. These use cases will only continue to grow as whole new economies are built on decentralized protocols, much like the internet was built on top of protocols like TCP/IP.

  • Status of Open Source and Commercial Ipv6 Firewall Implementations (Paper)
    Status of Open Source and commercial IPv6 firewall implementations Dr. Peter Bieringer AERAsec Network Services & Security GmbH [email protected] http://www.aerasec.de/ European Conference on Applied IPv6 (ECAI6) Cologne, Germany September 6 - 7, 2007 Abstract IPv6, the successor of IPv4, has been ready for production for quite some time. For security reason, firewalling in IPv6 is also an important requirement. This paper presents an overview of the status of Open Source and commer- cial implementations. Introduction With IPv4 nowadays, many client-to-server and most client-to-client communications are intercepted by gate- ways with address and port masquerading abilities, usually named Network (and Port) Address Translation (NAT, NAPT). This prohibits native client-to-client communication, if both peers are located behind such gate- ways. In this case, only special tunnelling techniques, like STUN (Simple traversal of UDP over NATs), which requires special servers located at the Internet, or other ªfirewall-piercingº methods can help to establish native and bidirectional client-to-client communication. One of the goals of IPv6 is the re-introduction of bidirectional, native end-to-end communication without play- ing any tricks on gateways in between. Also, IPv6 has a large enough address space which should suffice for the next decades. Therefore NAT was left out by design, too. Jumping back to IPv4, the initial intention of introducing NAT was the lack of IPv4 addresses for use in internal networks, while still allowing clients to open connections to the Internet via a hiding mechanism. It turned out to also protect internal networks against threats from the Internet, because under normal circumstances (bug- free stateful hiding-NAT implementation on the gateway) it©s not possible for an outside node to connect to an internal host without any dedicated rule on the gateway.

  • Masters in Management in Entrepreneurship and New Venture Management
    MASTERS IN MANAGEMENT IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND NEW VENTURE MANAGEMENT Research Title: The nexus between entrepreneurship theory and venture capital financing decisions in South Africa Violet S’phiwe Buluma Student Number: 693690 BUSA 7044 Supervisor: Dr Jose Barreira Date of submission: 20 June 2017 ABSTRACT This explorative study examines the decision making criteria at the screening stage by venture capital firms in South Africa. The study also probes into the decision making criteria on the personality side and whether that has any association with the “big five” characteristics. A three- section questionnaire including both Likert style type (decision making and short version of big five) and nominal questions was sent to venture capital firms. Logistic regression as well as correlation analysis was run on the data. The findings were that individual attributes (entrepreneurs’ characteristics and experience) environment, industry and macro economic environment (characteristics of product and services, characteristics of the market and financial considerations) are all positively related to venture capital firms’ decision to grant finance to an entrepreneur. Findings on the big five characteristics are that only openness to experience, consientiousness and extrarversion were seen as critical considerations by venture capital firms, but not agreeableness and emotional stability characteristics. The study findings are beneficial for entrepreneurs and venture capital firms. Key words – Venture capital, investment criteria, big five personality, entrepreneurship, access to finance 2 DECLARATION I Violet S’phiwe Buluma declare that the research work reported in this dissertation is my own, except where otherwise indicated in references and acknowledgements. It is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Masters of Management in Entrepreneurship and New Venture Management at the University of the Witwatersrand.

  • Marc Andreessen on Why Software Is Eating the World
    Why Software Is Eating The World By MARC ANDREESSEN This week, Hewlett-Packard (where I am on the board) announced that it is exploring jettisoning its struggling PC business in favor of investing more heavily in software, where it sees better potential for growth. Meanwhile, Google plans to buy up the cell- phone handset maker Motorola Mobility. Both moves surprised the tech world. But both moves are also in line with a trend I've observed, one that makes me optimistic about the future growth of the American and world economies, despite the recent tur- moil in the stock market. In short, software is eating the world. More than 10 years after the peak of the 1990s dot-com bubble, a dozen or so new Inter- net companies like Facebook and Twitter are sparking controversy in Silicon Valley, due to their rapidly growing private market valuations, and even the occasional successful IPO. With scars from the heyday of Webvan and Pets.com still fresh in the investor psy- che, people are asking, "Isn't this just a dangerous new bubble?" I, along with others, have been arguing the other side of the case. (I am co-founder and general partner of venture capital firm Andreessen-Horowitz, which has invested in Facebook, Groupon, Skype, Twitter, Zynga, and Foursquare, among others. I am also personally an investor in LinkedIn.) We believe that many of the prominent new Inter- net companies are building real, high-growth, high-margin, highly defensible business- es. Today's stock market actually hates technology, as shown by all-time low price/earn- ings ratios for major public technology companies.
