ENGL

I have been working all week on a ZENworks lifecycle demo and session - part of this involves delivering a consistent Windows XP SP2 operating system to workstations, in an automated, hands-free manner. Certainly this toolkit has saved us days of time in building our demonstrations.
Part of the solution has seen us integrate the ENGL Imaging Toolkit into our demo; this allows the creation of a ‘universal image’ - it works well. In our demo we have a single 800MB Windows XP image that can be delivered to any type of hardware - Dell, IBM, HP, Lenovo, whitebox and even VMware.

The ENGL Imaging Toolkit has a great write-up in the current Novell Connection Magazine. Read it here.

ZENworks and end-point security

A couple of announcements that may have slipped under the radar - two security partnerships at BrainShare:

SecureWave - providing removable device lockdown and security, application white and blacklisting - all tied in to Novell Identity
Third Brigade - providing a smart, small, host based intrusion detection system.

Press here from Third Brigade. I’ll add SecureWave when it hits the wire.
