cyber security Awareness Month the
latest for IBM storage and IBM AI
governance all on this episode of IBM
Tech now
what's up y'all my name is Ian and I am
back to bring you the latest and

IBM technology
October is National cyber security
awareness month and we're celebrating
incident responders across the industry
we want to recognize and appreciate our
cyber Frontline responders for their

past solely impacting Data Systems in
I.T environments they now impact our
access to essential Services goods and
the economy hospitals food manufacturers
and schools are among the victims we've
seen brought to Temporary standstills by
ransomware gangs over recent years
this means that incident responders
today are charged with much more than
defending against Data Theft they're
tasked with ensuring the world continues
to run and it's a sense of service that
drives the IR Community to do what they
do so we salute them for it in the
sacrifice that follows so I hope you all

next up let's take a look at how IBM is
redefining hybrid Cloud application and
data storage we're thrilled to announce
that red hat is transferring its storage
portfolio and Associated teams including
Red Hat stuff storage Red Hat openshift
data Foundation rook and nuba to IBM
storage so what does that mean well we
believe this creates the most complete
and Powerful software-defined storage
portfolio in the industry
working together with red hat we're
accelerating our Innovation and
leveraging open source to deliver an
industry-leading portfolio and a
consistent experience for our clients
across on-premises infrastructure and
Cloud
the result Hardware agnostic storage
services that truly redefine hybrid
cloud storage for applications and data
across bare metal virtualized and
containerized environments this means
faster hybrid multi-cloud deployments
with greater Simplicity and expanded
platform support backed by IBM's Global
sales and life cycle services

responsibility of every organization to
adhere to ethical explainable AI
respecting individual rights privacy and
non-discrimination
that's why we're proud to introduce IBM
AI governance a new One-Stop solution
that is designed to help businesses meet
their regulatory requirements and
address ethical concerns through
software automation
everything needed to develop a
consistent transparent model management
process is included in IBM AI governance
and it is built on three critical
principles lifecycle governance risk
management and Regulatory Compliance
