Jump to first matched term
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 14, 1999--
Seminar Series to Include Real-life Case Studies and Instructions on
Building Comprehensive Extranets
Aventail Corporation, the leading provider of Extranet Management and Security (EMS) software, Marimba, a leading provider of Internet Services Management (ISM) solutions, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Security Dynamics (Nasdaq:SDTI), a leading provider of enterprise network and data security solutions, announced today their five-city Extranet Advantage seminar series.
These free, half-day seminars will provide IT professionals with the technical information and purchasing knowledge they need to incorporate extranets into an enterprise. In addition, the seminars will cover best practices and provide "lessons-learned" guidelines from real-life examples of large corporations.
Building the Extended Enterprise
Many visionary companies are building extranets to securely share information with customers, business partners, and suppliers -- thus increasing operational efficiency, enhancing product competitiveness, and elevating levels of customer intimacy -- all while maintaining a reasonable cost structure. Extranets have moved beyond the limited connotations of transaction-based processes and are now encompassing full-scale business processes and negotiations. These seminars will help technical and business professionals make informed decisions about the technologies that are most appropriate for their corporate extranet environment.
The following topics will be addressed during the seminar:
-- Security and Management considerations for your extranet
-- Evaluating the return on investment for your extranet
-- Delivering and managing applications or services on your
extranet
-- Seamlessly integrating an extranet into your existing
infrastructure
-- Case studies of successful extranet initiatives
