In particular in the human resources planning, if the project manager asks professionals from the various departments for his project, the question of if and when there are spare capacity in the areas of or employees through their line activities or ongoing projects that they are assigned are already busy often arises. The can do project management software builds a bridge between project and line with the staffer now, by significantly simplifying the coordination process between project and line managers. Live management: Integrated human resources planning with the staffer, which intelligence version 4.4 available is project can do, head of Department and line managers receive a detailed overview of the current utilization of their Department and its employees, whether it is project work or professional activities are in the Department. The staffer leads on all projects, project phases and workpackages, where the staff of the Department, or the Department itself, are already planned. Also, the free capacity of the employees are listed in the tabular overview as well as all personnel requests from projects. Employees are already overloaded, this indicates that planning software according to. On basis of this overview of free, already planned and requested capacity, the line manager can use the personnel requests from the projects.

The staffer offers him a reliable data base to decide how many and which employees he can assign the respective projects. As soon as he has a member of staff to a work package, this will be adjusted in his survey, as well as in the project plan. Here, the line manager may choose the period that should be considered to make his staff assignments for example quarterly.

Adaptation risks arise from lack of willingness and ability to change the staff. Companies of any size and industry face the challenge to respond to constantly changing market conditions. This is done usually by changes on the part of the company itself. These changes can be realized only if the employees actively support the changes. To minimize this kind of risks a profound change is demand management, which includes both the factors of workplace, remuneration system and working time, but also skills of employees. Motivation risk risk of massive restraint performance, but also excess motivation, which can have a depletion of staff up to the Burnout symptoms result. Motivation risks are not directly measurable.

CeBIT appearance of sysob and ruckus: Smart Wi-Fi technology for higher data throughput Schorndorf, February 24, 2011 wireless LAN is a convenient solution for the wireless network architecture. For the multimedia traffic the Wi-Fi technology is however not optimally equipped to provide reliable connections in carrier quality and stable performance. A solution for the automatic and trouble-free wireless coverage presents the sysob IT-distribution (www.sysob.com) at CeBIT 2011. In Hall 11, booth B26 can visitors who patented Smart information about Wi-Fi technology from ruckus wireless sysob partner. Wireless networks enable a quick and mobile Internet connection. Users in the business sector that no longer are in their offices and can work anywhere. However interference or changes of radio frequency environment companies and providers make it difficult to resolve the Wi-Fi issues. To a mesh (meshed) connection with a far-reaching data transport enable, users need to use often different products.

Within the framework of their joint presence of CeBIT show ruckus wireless and sysob a safe alternative with the patented Smart Wi-Fi technology, combines the significant Wi-Fi features in a system. Higher range and reliability in Wi-Fi environments present the ruckus experts at the sysob stand-new radio frequency technologies. Them based on small, software driven and smart antenna arrays, as well as the formation of dynamic rays (Beamforming”). Thus, Wi-Fi signals can be shaped, focused and conducted in real time via the signal path with the best performance. The smart Wi-Fi technology ensures a greater range and reliable signals that can be automatically adapted to environment changes.

Summarized the controller-based access points offer after 802.11a/b/g/n for the indoor and outdoor areas following technical advantages: BeamFlex: antenna system that dynamically finds the relevant way to the client. SmartCast: Traffic management system, the the order in which of the packages are sent via the smart antenna array, classified, sorted, and plans. Smart-sec: advanced security mechanisms such as dynamically generated preshared keys, rights for users, insulation of wireless clients and wireless intrusion detection features.

Safe Production Network

Published by:

The modern IT technology is indispensable today from the classic production areas of many industrial companies. Systems and technologies from the traditional IT environment used in automation and process control, which controls the central production and supply processes and controls, more and more often: automation components such as PLCs (programmable logic controllers) communicate via TCP/IP and industrial Ethernet, process control systems running on Windows or UNIX systems, machines take their commissions from SQL databases or directly from SAP. In addition to the desired positive effects, such as cost reduction and increased productivity leads this development but also that that sensitive production processes affected are now increasingly directly from IT security threats, which they have in the field of classic Office IT”limited believed such as malicious software infection, data loss, or even access by unauthorized persons. The damage caused by IT security incidents here be easily far-reaching dimensions take, if for example as a result of a virus attack stopped production for several hours or days. Depending on the type of controlled processes can occur under circumstances even to the environmental hazards or injury. Especially problematic is that many tried and tested standard security measures from the Office IT often do not apply can be in the process – or production area.

Anti virus software or current security patches cannot be installed, because manufacturers then no longer guarantee the breaking of their systems or very elaborate testing and revalidation is needed. Most of the time, also a temporary shut-down components to play up and testing a security update is not possible because the production process must be maintained around the clock. Common security measures fail simply, that caused by the very long in comparison to the standard IT system life time often obsolete operating systems such as Windows NT or Solaris 8 are used for which no more support is provided by the manufacturer and for which also no updates are made more available. “Another problem is that many systems originally not with the design goal of security” were developed and designed individual automation components or even whole systems often already in simplest security testing, how it performs as a port scanner, fall off after a short time. In addition, the communication protocols such as Modbus TCP or the various, proprietary PLC protocols not against unauthorized read-out of information or data manipulation used in industrial environments are protected. Consequence: with freely available tools it is possible via the network stop controls to manipulate running programs, flags or delete to control PLC outputs. Even worse, that due to the growing demand for data integration and zeitnahem data access more and more interfaces between the production systems and the classic Office environment will be created both within the company as well as external partners such as suppliers and customers. Shielding critical production networks to external systems is further softened by remote maintenance system manufacturers and suppliers via a modem or VPN connections. The only briefly described, complex issues makes it clear that sophisticated and individual concepts of protection are necessary to secure production-related systems against security threats.
