Is it difficult for your staff and students to share information and networks securely? How do you cope with outages and disruptions to your network services and potential disasters that could affect your entire institution?
IBM consultants work with universities to help them design and implement their IT infrastructure to deliver a "Smart Campus", providing an environment that supports students and staff in an open, user-centric way.
The Grid solution from IBM enables geographically distributed entities to share applications, data and computing resources. Available IT resources can then be redeployed to let researchers access more computing power when needed.
IBM's IT security solution allows your IT infrastructure to be assessed for threats. Once the risks are understood, they can be mitigated and managed to secure and protect data, user identities and the IT infrastructure itself.
The next step is to ensure continuity of IT services and support in the event of disaster or disruptions. IBM's business resiliency and continuity services ensure that your institution is prepared for any event or threat and lessens the economic consequences of disruptions.
IBM partners with Cisco® to future-proof your IT with converged multiple networks that provide a reliable network foundation that can grow and evolve as your requirements change.
