Podcasts:

"Looking at the Big Picture"
Ken Turbitt, ITIL Global Practice Director, BMC Software
ITIL: It's a term you see a lot in IT these days, but does anyone really know what it is? ITIL is nothing more than documented common sense, yet putting it to work requires discipline, deliberation, and having the patience to look at the big picture of business goals and IT, together.
  "It's All About the Business"
Simon Teager, Program Executive, Service Impact, Event & Service Level Management, BMC Software
IT can't be an isolated island of hardware, software, and personnel anymore. Successful CIOs should be thinking about integrated solutions that help IT manage all of its functions in alignment with business objectives. The more integrated the solution, the more efficient the operation, and the more services and demonstratable value IT can deliver for a company.
  "Who Are You?"
Chris Williams, Identity Management Expert, BMC Software
Today's decentralized systems pose new security issues with multiple access points and data storage repositories. Add to this the threat of identity theft, hacking and global privacy rules and you have a complex and costly soup of security requirements and privacy issues. With identity management streamline compliance with regulatory mandates, ensure the integrity of valuable data, and safeguard privacy, efficiently and cost-effectively.
