New License Management Tool for GHS Users
Areas of application for GHS NETplus include salvage and other specialized operations that require remote use of GHS software. Prior to travel, a GHS license may be loaded onto a networked PC, disconnected from the network, and deployed off-site for a determined amount of time. No more dongles or expiring keys to worry about with NETplus - the system automatically returns the checked-out license to the library on the due date so it's available for the next user. NETplus gives administrators an optimal tool for deployment and management of a company's GHS software inventory. With the ability to track licenses, administrators can now pinpoint active users of GHS.
Fincantieri Chooses CA's Unicenter and eTrust Solutions
Computer Associates International, Inc. (CA) announced that Fincantieri has implemented Unicenter Network and Systems Management to control its complex distributed infrastructure, and CA's eTrust security solutions to protect its eBusiness applications and data. In 1999, stiff competition from Asia and reductions in defense spending prompted a far-reaching restructuring program to rationalize corporate processes. "The cornerstone of our renewal program was information technology," said Gianantonio Rui, CIO, Fincantieri. Fincantieri's distributed infrastructure comprises some 70 Windows NT servers handling data and communications for 1,800 Windows and 1,200 CAD workstations across the country.
