Red Hat and Intel recently commissioned IDG to conduct a survey of IT and business managers at US financial services organizations who were involved in cloud computing strategy and purchasing to better understand how they are deploying hybrid cloud. We discovered that the top considerations for improving customer experience included the need for flexibility, manageability, accessibility, and responsiveness. Read this analyst paper to discover three important steps in adopting hybrid cloud, and how Red Hat helps institutions mitigate the hybrid cloud portability challenge. Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® creates a consistent foundation across all environments. Red Hat OpenShift® provides an enterprise Kubernetes platform built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux that containerizes applications for easier portability and consistent functionality, and Red Hat Ansible® Automation Platform provides a solid foundation for building and operating automation across the entire hybrid infrastructure.

The financial services industry (FSI) is fighting unique battles against disruptions. This Harvard Business Review Analytic Services report examines how the industry has had to quickly pivot to keep operations running and how companies are taking a fresh look at their digital transformation strategies. Going forward, more FSI organizations will use automation and other key technologies — for resiliency, agility, and innovation — all to enhance the customer experience.

As the largest open source company in the world, Red Hat believes using an open development model helps create more stable, secure, and innovative technology. We have spent more than two decades collaborating on community projects and protecting open source licenses so that we can continue to develop software that pushes the boundaries of the software industry.

Red Hat revolutionized the operating system 25 years ago with Linux®. We have built upon that experience to create a cloud platform that provides the tools (Figure 1) needed by payment organizations to operate more efficiently and innovate more quickly. It includes a robust set of application and developer tools that help organizations simplify their technology estate and be more competitive.

If there are two words federal cybersecurity experts hear most frequently today, they are probably “zero trust.” Not only are there plenty of mandates and other requirements to move in that direction, but there are practical reasons as well. It reduces agency risk; provides better control over access, assets and users; and improves the overall cybersecurity posture of the agency.

While all agencies are working toward zero trust, getting all the way there can seem overwhelming, but it’s definitely doable—and it doesn’t have to be all-consuming. By approaching the issue systematically and taking the time to do it right, all agencies can get there.

The Cybersecurity Executive Order requires every federal agency to adopt zero trust, and OMB published an updated Federal Zero Trust Strategy in Memorandum M-22-09. It outlines three Identity goals that every agency must achieve by the end of fiscal year 2024. Learn how you can quickly accomplish these goals now.

The Cybersecurity Executive Order requires every federal agency to adopt zero trust, and the CISA Zero Trust Maturity Model aids the transition. It shows five pillars of zero trust, and the first is Identity. Learn why zero trust begins with identity, and how to quickly achieve optimal identity maturity.

A global pandemic, shrinking workforce, and aging equipment are leading utilities to increasingly adopt digital technologies that allow workers to collaborate remotely from anywhere and on any device.  According to a report by Gartner®, “by 2023, 30% of critical utility operations (field, office and mission-critical) will involve flexible working arrangements.”
