  • Microsoft'sevolving App Strategy
    CAN MICROSOFT MAP THE FUTURE OF IT? Microsoft’s Evolving App Strategy Microsoft is trying to better align its applications through a new interface and improved cloud connectivity. Is this the right strategy? BY BRIEN M. POSEY THE NEW INTERFACE WHERE RT AND OFFICE FIT CLOUD CONNECTIVITY CAN MICROSOFT MAP THE FUTURE OF IT? VER THE PAST two decades, Microsoft’s strategy for desktop and mobile ap- plications has remained relatively static. Microsoft devoted much of its energy to creating operating systems and allowed applications to develop almost as an afterthought. THE NEW Even today the company adheres to this haphazard approach to applications. INTERFACE O At the same time, the company’s most recent product-release cycle demonstrates that Microsoft’s support for desktop and mobile apps is evolving. WHERE RT AND OFFICE FIT When it comes to application support in the company’s latest releases, two major themes have emerged: the new tile-based user interface (UI) and cloud con- nectivity. While both of these technologies benefit a segment of Microsoft’s cus- CLOUD CONNECTIVITY tomer base, they have also created numerous challenges for IT professionals. In particular, the new Windows 8 interface has been an impediment to adop- tion among business users, but it is part of a concerted effort on Microsoft’s part to build consistency throughout its application set. Despite this imperfect strat- egy, there are signs that the approach is pointing Microsoft in a direction that al- lows business users to productively use Windows, Office and other applications on PCs, tablets and smartphones. 2 MICROSOFT’S EVOLVING APP STRATEGY THE NEW INTERFACE WINDOWS’ NEW INTERFACE The most well-known element of the Windows 8 operating system is the new user interface (which at one time was called the Metro interface and is now known as the Windows 8-style UI).

  • Tablets in the Enterprise: Comparing the Total Cost of Ownership
    TABLETS IN THE ENTERPRISE: COMPARING THE TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Windows 8 tablets provide a PC experience, which for many workers is essential to maintaining productivity. With Windows 8, users can run familiar desktop applications, maintaining productivity without having to find new ways to carry out their tasks. They can read, edit, and print their emails and Office documents—tasks that can be a challenge on other tablets. In addition to these productivity advantages, Intel Core i5 processor and Windows 8 tablets can provide enterprises with total cost of ownership (TCO) savings of up to 18 percent compared to other tablets. We expect additional TCO savings with Intel Core vPro™ processor-based tablets due to their additional manageability capabilities. We estimate tablets with Intel Architecture and Windows 8 will have lower TCO than other tablets, primarily due to the following: reduced software costs lower management costs improved end-user productivity JANUARY 2013 A PRINCIPLED TECHNOLOGIES WHITE PAPER Commissioned by Intel Corp. TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP OF TABLETS IN THE ENTERPRISE In this paper, we first present a TCO analysis for a hypothetical enterprise considering four major categories of tablets for their employees: Microsoft Windows 8 tablets, Windows RT tablets, Android tablets, and Apple iPads. Because the ranges of prices and capabilities differ among models within each category, we selected a single representative model for each. Following this analysis, we discuss the dominant issues in enterprise tablet computing as of this writing. We base our TCO analysis on the primary assumptions in Figure 1. Tablets must be nine inches or larger with 64 GB of storage and Wi-Fi support.

  • All About Tablets What Is a Tablet?
    All About Tablets What is a tablet? A tablet is any portable device with a touch screen that allows for mobile computing. It differs from a Smart Phone in that it does not have phone functionality. Otherwise, it can be nearly identical. An eReader is a type of tablet designed primarily for reading eBooks, and may or may not have the same advanced functionalities as a tablet. Things you can do with a tablet Most tablets have: Internet web browsing Calendar/Clock Email mp3/Music Playing Camera (Picture/Video) Some Androids and iPads allow for a keyboard/mouse to be connected, for easier use. Some also have a 3g (or 4g) antenna built-in, which allows for cell phone data access to the internet in areas where there is no WiFi available (this requires a subscription to use). Things you CAN’T do with a tablet Tablets cannot run or install traditional programs, like what a computer uses. Tablets only run “apps”. You cannot install a program or game unless it is available as an app. Not all tablets have apps. Some third-party tablets (that are neither Androids nor iPads) do not have an “App Store”, and only run the apps they come with. Tablets cannot connect to a printer. Some advanced printers allow for printing from Android or iPads, but not many do. Even if it has a USB port, you cannot just plug a USB device into a tablet unless the tablet supports it. Types of Tablets/Operating Systems Apple iOS: Used by all Apple devices, including iPhone, iPad, and even iPod Android OS: The most commonly used OS.

  • End User Devices Security Guidance: Windows 8 RT Updated 14 October 2013
    GOV.UK Guidance End User Devices Security Guidance: Windows 8 RT Updated 14 October 2013 Contents 1. Usage Scenario 2. Summary of Platform Security 3. How the Platform Can Best Satisfy the Security Recommendations 4. Network Architecture 5. Deployment Process 6. Provisioning Steps 7. Policy Recommendations 8. Enterprise Considerations This guidance is applicable to devices running Windows 8 RT. Windows RT implements a different set of features to the Enterprise edition of Windows 8 and so is considered separately. This guidance was developed following testing performed on Microsoft Surface tablets. 1. Usage Scenario Windows RT devices will be used remotely over Wi-Fi and 3G to connect back to the enterprise over a VPN. This enables a variety of remote working approaches such as accessing OFFICIAL email; creating, editing, reviewing and commenting on OFFICIAL documents; accessing the OFFICIAL intranet resources, the Internet and other web-resources. To support these scenarios, the following architectural choices are recommended: All data should be routed over a secure enterprise VPN to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the traffic, and to benefit from enterprise protective monitoring solutions. Arbitrary third-party application installation by users is not permitted on the device. Procedural measures are in place to enable users to install trusted applications as approved and monitored by the enterprise. 2. Summary of Platform Security This platform has been assessed against each of the twelve security recommendations, and that assessment is shown in the table below. Explanatory text indicates that there is something related to that recommendation that the risk owners should be aware of.
