Table of ContentsDear reader,

I’m delighted to be given the honor to address you in anticipation of the e-Democracy Conference

2011.

It was a splendid opportunity to host the first regional Conference dedicated to the promotion and

development of information society. The success of the previous conference and the praises

received from the participants have encouraged us even more to get involved in the sharing of the

e-Democracy cause and the enhancement of e-Government society.

With the same enthusiasm and even greater expectations, this year again we host the

e-Democracy Conference 2011 in the beautiful city of Ohrid, from 25th to 27th September.

Motivated by the previous results, this year we are even more determined to promote e-Democracy

values, debate about the challenges of good governance and the ways to overcome them by using

state-of-the-art ICT solutions. We strongly believe successful e-government is about restructuring

existing business processes; providing solid government-citizen interaction and strengthening the

bonds between governments and their stakeholders.

Being inspired by a decade of prosperous existence on the market, in this issue we would like to

highlight our oldest and most recognized product, Nextsense webBuilder Content Management

System. We’re proud to present the features of this solution, its benefits and successful

implementations.

Thank you for being part of this exciting adventure. I hope you will enjoy this issue!

BACKGROUND

The e-Democracy Conference 2010 addressed from both the policy and technical perspectives, how the use of ICT can help improve democracy, transparency, accountability and effectiveness in the public institutions. The event was co-organized by Nextsense and the Centre for e-Governance Development for South East Europe (CeGD).

STRUCTURE AND TOPICS OF THE CONFERENCE

The program of the conference was structured aroundthree core work-streams:

• ICT in legislative knowledge management

• How ICT can transform the work of parliament and government

• Parliament and Democracy in the Twenty-first century

The conference included two panel sessions, one for the parliaments and Governments and one for the Official Journals as well as three case study presentations about e-government solutions successfully implemented by Nextsense:

• The e-Parliament solution in the Assembly of the Republic of Macedonia,

• The e-cabinet system in the Government of Albania and

• The legislative management system in the Official Journal of the Republic of Macedonia.

CONFERENCE CONCLUSIONS AND FINAL REMARKS

The advancement of the Information Society calls for the involvement of diverse stakeholders, including international organizations; governments, parliaments and other public institutions; the private sector; academia and the civil society.

Our aim is to integrate these stakeholders and develop a knowledge sharing platform that will enable us to continuously exchange experiences and thoughts about the e-Democracy enhancement in the region.

THESE ARE THE MAIN CONCLUSIONS THAT WERE BROUGHT AT THE E-DEMOCRACY CONFERENCE 2010:

• Macedonia has a very big advantage in implementing ICT in the public institutions compared to the countries in the region. The Macedonian positive experiences regarding the implementation of e-government solutions should be used as an example for the other countries in the region.

• New ICT technologies, especially social networking should be used for empowering citizens to take action in representative democracy. Capitalize on the benefits of ICT to function effectively, to interact with the public, and to collaborate with other public institutions around the world.

• Permanent regional cooperation and share of vision is essential for e-Democracy. The SEE region has a unique

e-Participation potential in relation to the Western Europe. When we say that the public institutions should collaborate between themselves, we do not only mean collaboration between institutions in the same country, but also regional collaboration that would provide exchange of experiences and good practices. This e-Democracy Conference is an example of how public institutions, politicians, policy makers, experts from international organizations, academia and business can be gathered in order to engage in dialog on the role that ICT can play in improving democracy.

• Institutions shall build social trust, transparency and accountability. All public institutions should be transparent and accountable in their work by providing to citizens not just general information about the institution but also more specific documents and information concerning legislation, budget, activities of members etc.

• Transformational government (citizen-centricity, skills). e-Participation is not a choice: e participation will happen whether you like it or not. A government’s only choice is whether to react defensively to it, or to engage pro-actively in ways which create public value.

• Planning and management are very important for successful implementation of e-Democracy. The public institutions should have a long term vision about their development and based on that vision they should develop a strategic plan with included schedules, milestones and resource allocation (human, financial, internal, external etc.)

• Having the necessary political will and commitment is crucial for the successful implementation of e-Democracy. Democracy and ICT themselves are not enough to realize the vision about making public institutions transparent, accountable and accessible unless there is somebody that can carry out that vision and provide the necessary support and leadership for the implementation of that vision.

In order to make the e-Democracy conference event more accessible to the participants and the other interested individuals and social groups, Nextsense managed to transfer all of the conference’s activities on the social media channels like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn.

Our YouTube channel is the perfect place where people can see all the videos related to the previous conference and sense the working and friendly atmosphere at the Conference.

Facebook users can easily communicate and share experiences regarding the conference and other related e-Democracy and e-Government topics on our Facebook page, named E-Democracy Conference 2011.

Twitter was used to briefly communicate all event information, as well as to share relevant news and make friends with other fellow-twitterers involved in the field of e-Democracy and e-Government. Least but not last, you can find the e-Democracy Conference discussion group on LinkedIn. We hope to gather professionals involved in the field of e-Democracy and foster bigger communication that would give us ideas that can be debated on the Conference.

At Nextsense we believe successful e-government is about restructuring existing business processes; providing communication and information exchange among administrative agencies; creating new bonds between governments, their stakeholders and citizens; and fostering economic development across the region.

Driven by the outstanding success of the e-Democracy Conference 2010, we are proud to announce the e-Democracy Conference 2011. With the same enthusiasm and even greater expectations, this year again we host the e-Democracy Conference 2011 in the beautiful city of Ohrid, from 25th to 27th September.

The conference will once again bring together the top of the e-government community and will provide a unique opportunity for an interactive forum that will allow the participants to exchange their knowledge, thoughts and ideas regarding the e-Democracy concepts in the region.

The e-Democracy Conference 2011 will be the place where members of public institutions such as: parliaments, governments, official journals, experts from international organizations and academics will have the opportunity to exchange ideas and views about the use of ICT in public institutions, analyze good practices and learn from each other’s experiences.

System for the Approximationof national legislation with EU Acquis

10

The system for the Approximation of national legislation

with EU Acquis is implemented in the Ministry for European

Integration in Albania as part of the Support to the Ministry

of European Integration of Albania II (SMEI II) project. The

overall objective of the project is to support the Albania in

implementing the Stabilisation and Association

Agreement-SAA and in the preparation of the country for the

accession to the European Union.

The system for the allocation of the EU acquis to the responsible

institutions manages the process of Approximation of the national

legislation with European legislation (acquis communitere). This

information system is based on the database of the EU legislation which is

regularly updated with new and modified EU measures.

One of the biggest advantages of the software solution for allocation of the EU

legislative measures to the responsible line ministries is its interoperability and the

same technology platform as the Nextsense e-Cabinet system.

The functionalities of the acquis distribution system are further enhanced with the setting

of the Law Approximation Database and the development of a collaboration tool for

preparation of the narrative part of the NPISAA document.

Implemented by:Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ)

– German Technical Co-operation

Timeline: September 2009 - September 2011

Project beneficiary: The Ministry of European Integration

Purpose: Strengthen the administrative capacity of MEI to:

• Manage the SAA implementation

• Perform the NIPAC’s responsibilities

• Improve the legal coordination process

• Ensure the sustainability of EU related reforms

• Improve the inter-ministerial coordination mechanisms

The core functionalities of the collaboration tool for preparation of the National Plan for Implementation of Stabilization and Association Agreement (NPISAA):

• Support team work and collaboration in the process of preparation;

• Powerful tool for the coordinators, which enables them to have an up-to-date overview of the process and document status in any given moment (reporting);

• Support division and delegation of the work to working groups as well as automatic compilation of the document;

• Support flexible assignment and management of the working group members and their roles within the process.

The essential functions of the Law Approximation Database (LAD) are to:

• Store up-to-date information on National and EU legislation;

• Store up-to-date information on correlations and compatibility levels between EU and national legal acts;

• Serve as a tool to assess, plan and monitor the process of approximation and harmonization of the National and EU legislation;

• Have reporting features that would make the process of preparing the NPISAA more efficient;

Virtualization storyVirtualization – Did you get one for yourself ?Virtualization has become a very hot topic between the managers of all types, shapes and sizes. Not only IT managers talk

about it but all of the “(SELECT*Manager )” population, putting all kinds of tags to it like cutting costs, optimizing services,

downsizing the IT, consolidating hardware, achieving dynamic IT etc. This just proves that the techy guys have really

successfully sold the virtualization story. Now, as you may all expect, there are a lots of tips’n tricks + “things to be

considered & done” for a story to become a true story, especially to become a successful one.

Test driving virtualizationThe good news is that finally, people start thinking about the virtualization like

actually buying a Ferrari. The slight difference between the Ferrari story and the

virtualization is that with the virtualization – more or less, everybody can, if not

already has, tried one. That’s the top selling point, you can try some of it, on your

lap-top, on your home computer, at your lab environment and usually it’s what you

see that gets you hot. Imagine – to be able to try a Ferrari in the same way ?

So everybody says – Let’s virtualize, let’s virtualize everything, let’s do it today!! -

Yeah, right!

18 19virtualizationvirtualization

Although the virtualization may seem quite

tempting and straight forward just a scratch

under the surface will discover the billion

vortexes waiting under the surface.

Successful virtualization story relies on some

heavy planning, adequate investment and real dedication. Just

like a Ferrari, Virtualization relies on overall quality - quality of the

hardware, quality of the virtualization platform, quality of the

monitoring & management software, quality of the

implementation, quality of everything and just like Ferrari – it

won’t take any compromises; serious performance requires

seriousness all the way. An intro example, when you lose a virtual

Host, you actually lose all of the virtual servers running on it, most

likely with all of the services those servers were offering, leading

the way to a potential disaster scenario.

So when you jump to conclusion that you should choose

virtualization as a solution, take a step back, sit, relax and think

again. No! - I don’t say you shouldn’t virtualize, I just say don’t

jump to it, cause it will bounce you off. Just be sure to carefully

consider all of the aspects of it: pros, cons, partners, consultants,

suppliers, SLA’s etc. before you enter the virtualization

adventure.

Virtualization may be a blessing. If properly planned,

implemented, tested, monitored and backed up, it can present

unbeatable ROI and become irreplaceable resource of asset

consolidation thus multiplying IT benefits. But, if you just

“virtualize”, skipping only one of those required steps mentioned

above, you’re getting yourself a potential time bomb, simply

waiting to go off and get you your nightmares.

Virtualization – blessing or curse?

Virtualization – Getting there!

Key Factors to be considered HW - servers & bladesBe sure to properly plan the CPU & RAM

workloads of your virtual environment. Don’t

forget to include the predicted growth. The

HW will (most likely) perform as stated in the

product sheets, leaving the possibility for mistakes at your own

planning side. If You plan to virtualize consider: not having a spare

part or taking it eternity to be obtained DOES leave you with not

just one failed physical sever, but all of the virtual servers running

on that host. So now, the efficiency of the SLA’s with your

hardware vendors REALLY gets into play. Just like with the spare

parts for your Ferrari, don’t make compromises with the hardware

used for virtualization.

HW- storageStorage vendors also evangelize virtualization. Understandingly,

the logical choice for the location of all those virtual machines will

be – “The storage”. Storage level de-duplication and especially

inter storage asynchronous replication usually is the selling tip! Be

careful, de-duplication and replication are usually Storage-Vendor

proprietary which can be tying in choices making you go all the

way with a single storage vendor, and than, once you’re tied to it

you find out that their proprietary virtualization High Availability

vendor specific software that comes into play besides being priced

sky-high doesn’t meet your requirements or has some limitations

that were not stated in the selling brochure. Tip- Be sure to know

the exact de-duplication and replication capabilities of the storage

product you’re about to purchase lined up with your own

virtualization de-duplication and replication requirements. Also,

some storage vendors do not support or have “prizey” add-ons if

you want to utilize storage based back-ups.

Virtualization platform - HypervisorWe are all witnesses of the Hyper-V vs. VMWare battle. There is a

thin line that differentiates them one from another. Both of them

have their pros and cons. It’s a fact that VMWare has a longer

history in the virtualization arena but, Microsoft Hyper-V on the

other hand beats it with price and integration with its monitoring

and management software. The verdict ? We always go with

something that has proved to be invaluable – availability of local

experts knowledge and support – that is. In our case Microsoft’s

Hyper-V wins the battle.

Virtualization platform – Management & Operations One thing that you will find out just as you deploy your first pure

Hyper-V host is that it does not provide you with a GUI. What about

managing multiple Hyper-V/VMWare hosts or Highly Available

Hyper-V/ESX host Farm? The answer to that is deployment of

adequate monitoring & management tools, and if they are

optimized for Virtual environments the better. One logical answer

can be the Microsoft System Center portfolio products (SC

Configuration Manager, SC Operations Manager, SC Virtual

Machine Manager). In this way you get yourself a unified set of

integrated tools for deployment, monitoring, change, control and

management of your overall environment. In particular, SCVMM is

the management tool that enables you to establish and control all

of the aspects of your virtual environment including the live

migration of the virtual hosts together with the high availability.

There are many things that should be

considered during the planning process and

unlike anything until now, virtualization and

it’s related technologies take us one step

higher in the planning process. With

virtualization we can get over the concept of high available hosts

and really deep dive into service high availability. The freedom to

automatically provision and deploy virtual machines and

seamlessly move them over from one host to another make “The

server” no longer unit of High Availability measurement, now it’s

“The service”. This approach also changes the complete concept of

High Availability, Disaster Recovery & Backup strategies. The

advanced HA possibilities for host and services, Live migration and

performance scalability are just a drop in the sea of possibilities

which just work fantastic in “PowerPoint”. Getting them properly

configured and working in real life is a “slightly” different story. It

takes some real world knowledge and extensive hands-on and

experience to get them sidelined with the business requirements

and expectations, properly planed and implemented.

This leads us to the one thing that we all face every day - the wrong

understanding and perception of the possibilities of the underlying

hardware and software technologies. Building the right

understanding of the HW/SW possibilities is the key to successful

virtualization project.

So, have your service layout planned upfront which will dictate the

required server/service disposition, which will bring you to your HA

requirement plan. Clearly state this plan as a requirement in front

of your HW, Storage, Software, Service vendors, and ask: Can You

do it? Can You guarantee? Most of them will state themselves as

“Virtualization Ready” but are they really? Are there things written

at the bottom of the page with unreadable small font, usually

marked with an asterisk, stating i.e. that you need to buy

proprietary monitoring and management software specially priced

(read “skyhigh”) if used with virtualization ? Can they provide You

with the whole service/server/HA/DR/Backup picture? Have they

ever implemented it?

Our advice: Just like implementing any technology - It’s always

better to consult someone who has already done it, the more the

better. Choosing the right virtualization Partner proves to be the

most important step in any major virtualization project.

Any Questions ?

The Ferrari anologyWhen talking about virtualization the emotions are

like talking about Ferrari – it’s an icon at it least,

everybody has heard about it, everybody wants

one, and suddenly everybody desperately needs

one. You see, possessing a Ferrari is not only

about speed, prestige and high adrenaline – it’s a lifestyle. It’s not

only the money (well for most of us that’s the first obstacle :)) or

image in question but it’s the ability to safely drive it and properly

maintain it. The factory in Maranello has its own sports track where

potential buyers of their TOP models are brought for drive skills

training before they become eligible to buy a Ferrari.

The real question is do you really need a Ferrari or you just need a

better vehicle? – Although it’s an icon, not everybody needs it. If

you’re into car racing, than you really need one and you will get the

most out of it, cover the costs, multiply on the benefits and bless

your choice. But If you only want to have one, just to have it, or

because everybody else wants to have it, and use it just to go to

work with it, with all of its perfection and performance, be ready to

get some serious spending that can be justified only through your

public image.

Now wait a minute, am I just saying that possessing a Ferrari is a

bad thing? NOOO! – actually, it can be one of the best things that

can happen to you. I am just saying that if you’ re not cautious and

aware enough upfront, it can certainly drain your budget, make

your neighbors (your husband/wife included) envy, get you a lot of

speeding tickets and certainly implant few sin-full thoughts in your

head.

tempting and straight forward just a scratch

under the surface will discover the billion

vortexes waiting under the surface.

Successful virtualization story relies on some

heavy planning, adequate investment and real dedication. Just

like a Ferrari, Virtualization relies on overall quality - quality of the

hardware, quality of the virtualization platform, quality of the

monitoring & management software, quality of the

implementation, quality of everything and just like Ferrari – it

won’t take any compromises; serious performance requires

seriousness all the way. An intro example, when you lose a virtual

Host, you actually lose all of the virtual servers running on it, most

likely with all of the services those servers were offering, leading

the way to a potential disaster scenario.

So when you jump to conclusion that you should choose

virtualization as a solution, take a step back, sit, relax and think

again. No! - I don’t say you shouldn’t virtualize, I just say don’t

jump to it, cause it will bounce you off. Just be sure to carefully

consider all of the aspects of it: pros, cons, partners, consultants,

suppliers, SLA’s etc. before you enter the virtualization

adventure.

Virtualization may be a blessing. If properly planned,

implemented, tested, monitored and backed up, it can present

unbeatable ROI and become irreplaceable resource of asset

consolidation thus multiplying IT benefits. But, if you just

“virtualize”, skipping only one of those required steps mentioned

above, you’re getting yourself a potential time bomb, simply

waiting to go off and get you your nightmares.

Virtualization – blessing or curse?

Virtualization – Getting there!

Key Factors to be considered HW - servers & bladesBe sure to properly plan the CPU & RAM

workloads of your virtual environment. Don’t

forget to include the predicted growth. The

HW will (most likely) perform as stated in the

product sheets, leaving the possibility for mistakes at your own

planning side. If You plan to virtualize consider: not having a spare

part or taking it eternity to be obtained DOES leave you with not

just one failed physical sever, but all of the virtual servers running

on that host. So now, the efficiency of the SLA’s with your

hardware vendors REALLY gets into play. Just like with the spare

parts for your Ferrari, don’t make compromises with the hardware

used for virtualization.

HW- storageStorage vendors also evangelize virtualization. Understandingly,

the logical choice for the location of all those virtual machines will

be – “The storage”. Storage level de-duplication and especially

inter storage asynchronous replication usually is the selling tip! Be

careful, de-duplication and replication are usually Storage-Vendor

proprietary which can be tying in choices making you go all the

way with a single storage vendor, and than, once you’re tied to it

you find out that their proprietary virtualization High Availability

vendor specific software that comes into play besides being priced

sky-high doesn’t meet your requirements or has some limitations

that were not stated in the selling brochure. Tip- Be sure to know

the exact de-duplication and replication capabilities of the storage

product you’re about to purchase lined up with your own

virtualization de-duplication and replication requirements. Also,

some storage vendors do not support or have “prizey” add-ons if

you want to utilize storage based back-ups.

Virtualization platform - HypervisorWe are all witnesses of the Hyper-V vs. VMWare battle. There is a

thin line that differentiates them one from another. Both of them

have their pros and cons. It’s a fact that VMWare has a longer

history in the virtualization arena but, Microsoft Hyper-V on the

other hand beats it with price and integration with its monitoring

and management software. The verdict ? We always go with

something that has proved to be invaluable – availability of local

experts knowledge and support – that is. In our case Microsoft’s

Hyper-V wins the battle.

Virtualization platform – Management & Operations One thing that you will find out just as you deploy your first pure

Hyper-V host is that it does not provide you with a GUI. What about

managing multiple Hyper-V/VMWare hosts or Highly Available

Hyper-V/ESX host Farm? The answer to that is deployment of

adequate monitoring & management tools, and if they are

optimized for Virtual environments the better. One logical answer

can be the Microsoft System Center portfolio products (SC

Configuration Manager, SC Operations Manager, SC Virtual

Machine Manager). In this way you get yourself a unified set of

integrated tools for deployment, monitoring, change, control and

management of your overall environment. In particular, SCVMM is

the management tool that enables you to establish and control all

of the aspects of your virtual environment including the live

migration of the virtual hosts together with the high availability.

There are many things that should be

considered during the planning process and

unlike anything until now, virtualization and

it’s related technologies take us one step

higher in the planning process. With

virtualization we can get over the concept of high available hosts

and really deep dive into service high availability. The freedom to

automatically provision and deploy virtual machines and

seamlessly move them over from one host to another make “The

server” no longer unit of High Availability measurement, now it’s

“The service”. This approach also changes the complete concept of

High Availability, Disaster Recovery & Backup strategies. The

advanced HA possibilities for host and services, Live migration and

performance scalability are just a drop in the sea of possibilities

which just work fantastic in “PowerPoint”. Getting them properly

configured and working in real life is a “slightly” different story. It

takes some real world knowledge and extensive hands-on and

experience to get them sidelined with the business requirements

and expectations, properly planed and implemented.

This leads us to the one thing that we all face every day - the wrong

understanding and perception of the possibilities of the underlying

hardware and software technologies. Building the right

understanding of the HW/SW possibilities is the key to successful

virtualization project.

So, have your service layout planned upfront which will dictate the

required server/service disposition, which will bring you to your HA

requirement plan. Clearly state this plan as a requirement in front

of your HW, Storage, Software, Service vendors, and ask: Can You

do it? Can You guarantee? Most of them will state themselves as

“Virtualization Ready” but are they really? Are there things written

at the bottom of the page with unreadable small font, usually

marked with an asterisk, stating i.e. that you need to buy

proprietary monitoring and management software specially priced

(read “skyhigh”) if used with virtualization ? Can they provide You

with the whole service/server/HA/DR/Backup picture? Have they

ever implemented it?

Our advice: Just like implementing any technology - It’s always

better to consult someone who has already done it, the more the

better. Choosing the right virtualization Partner proves to be the

most important step in any major virtualization project.

Any Questions ?

The Ferrari anologyWhen talking about virtualization the emotions are

like talking about Ferrari – it’s an icon at it least,

everybody has heard about it, everybody wants

one, and suddenly everybody desperately needs

one. You see, possessing a Ferrari is not only

about speed, prestige and high adrenaline – it’s a lifestyle. It’s not

only the money (well for most of us that’s the first obstacle :)) or

image in question but it’s the ability to safely drive it and properly

maintain it. The factory in Maranello has its own sports track where

potential buyers of their TOP models are brought for drive skills

training before they become eligible to buy a Ferrari.

The real question is do you really need a Ferrari or you just need a

better vehicle? – Although it’s an icon, not everybody needs it. If

you’re into car racing, than you really need one and you will get the

most out of it, cover the costs, multiply on the benefits and bless

your choice. But If you only want to have one, just to have it, or

because everybody else wants to have it, and use it just to go to

work with it, with all of its perfection and performance, be ready to

get some serious spending that can be justified only through your

public image.

Now wait a minute, am I just saying that possessing a Ferrari is a

bad thing? NOOO! – actually, it can be one of the best things that

can happen to you. I am just saying that if you’ re not cautious and

aware enough upfront, it can certainly drain your budget, make

your neighbors (your husband/wife included) envy, get you a lot of

speeding tickets and certainly implant few sin-full thoughts in your

head.

Can we prevent WikiLeaktype of information leakagefrom our organizations?

WikiLeaks recent priority has clearly been the publication of hundreds of thousands

of government documents. Since October WikiLeaks has closed its submissions

channel because the site was receiving more documents than it could find resources

to publish. Half of those unpublished submissions relate to the private sector.

According to Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, they had received damaging,

unpublished material from pharmaceutical companies, finance firms, banks and

energy companies, just to name a few industries.

Can these types of information and data leakage be prevented? Let’s analyze one

method used by US Army Private First Class Manning for transferring data to

external parties. He walked out the door with bogus Lady GAG CD-RW filled with

government secrets.

The good news is that there is a straightforward regimen to help stop these kinds of

risks. Symantec in its broad portfolio of security solutions offers several solutions

that can help in preventing these types of data leakages. In this article we will focus

only solutions that would prevent US Army Private First Class Manning from stilling

and transferring those documents outside US Army premises. These solutions are

only small subset of security solutions and technologies that you can implement in

your organization to protect sensitive data leakage.

First WikiLeaks spilled the guts of government. According to Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, now is the turn for the private sector, starting with one major American bank.

Some may find device control too coarse grained and want to only restrict copy operations

based on content. A great way to do this is with Symantec Data Loss Prevention Endpoint

Protect. It also prevents employees from copying confidential data to removable devices,

transferring it over the network, or trying to copy or paste, or print it – but with the added

ability to do so based on content. The advantage is that employees can, for example, copy

pictures of their kids to and from a USB stick, but not anything marked confidential or that

matches the fingerprint of a product design document or that contains confidential customer

information. Endpoint Prevent leverages the Symantec Data Loss Prevention suite for deep

content inspection, so policies on the endpoint can leverage those used for inspection of

email traffic

Encrypt Sensitive DocumentsObviously, preventing those without a need to know is one of the best ways to protect

secrets. The problem, however, is that access control lists on file shares are not vigorously

maintained. That means people who should not see documents can do so. Also there is

problem when laptops that have sensitive data on them are lost or stolen. The answer is to

encrypt those files, so if someone has access to a directory it won’t matter because they

won’t be able to read the file. This is exactly what PGP NetShare and Endpoint

Encryption from Symantec does.

And the user experience really doesn’t change at all. Having a lock on the

file or folder is intuitive and likely sends a warning to those looking to

steal. The file opens as normal for those with access, and is unreadable

by those without.

PGP NetShare also protects against mistakes made by those with

permissions, for example, by copying top secret documents to the

wrong folder. Encryption solves this problem - even if a file is moved

to the wrong place, only those with keys can read it.

PGP NetShare can also encrypt files by file type. This makes it easy

to protect Word docs, Excel spreadsheets and PowerPoint

presentations, but not MP3 files.

We will no doubt be hearing more from WikiLeaks. With such well

understood defenses available, CISOs really have no excuse for not

putting them in place. Perhaps we’ve been putting too much focus on the

criminal syndicates and not enough on the malicious insider.

?

Control how users use devices attachedto their computersDevice control, as its name suggests, controls what devices can be

used on a given computer. So if you want to disallow CD burning by

a government security analyst with access to secret documents,

you can do so. Symantec Endpoint Encryption (SEE) Device

Control allows this to be done by policy, across the organization.

Permissions can be set by group or per individual user. SEE Device

Control could even have allowed Pfc. Manning to listen to Lady

Gaga MP3 files, but prevented him from copying files of any type to

the CD.

Here’s how a security administrator could have done that:

With SEE Device Control, a security administrator can make the

decision that the use of USB sticks by field engineers who need to

download software for clients is okay, but not by customer service

agents with access to lots of personal customer information, who

never take work home. SEE Device Control policy can be set so

prevent any type of Bluetooth or WiFi data transfer, so data cannot

be transferred to mobile phones, or other types of storage devices.

SEE Device Control also offers some capabilities to facilitate audits

and forensics, like creating a log of all files copied or even creating

a “shadow copy” in case you want to see what was actually copied

down to the device. This would allow investigators to quickly and

clearly see the extent of breach perpetrated by an actor like

Manning.

The results from the

research made by MASIT,

the Macedonian ICT

Chamber of Commerce

showed that the IT

market in Macedonia, in

the period 2009-2011

had a lack of skilled IT

professionals trained in

Microsoft, Linux, Java

and Oracle

technologies.

Nextsense is proud to

be part of a very

important project

supported by the

Ministry of Information Society and Administration of the

Republic of Macedonia and the Employment Service Agency. 80

unemployed people were given the opportunity to receive

professional trainings in the most popular IT technologies.

As a certified Microsoft learning provider, Nextsense was

among the three chosen companies to deliver the Microsoft

trainings for the following packages: MCITP: Server

Administrator and MCITP: Microsoft SQL Server 2008,

Database Developer 2008.

Out of 180 interested candidates, 80 candidates were selected

to attend the IT courses based on the preliminary testing. The

Microsoft courses were among the most wanted and more than

100 candidates took the preliminary test in order to be part of

the 20 trainees for the official Microsoft courses. After the

Microsoft trainings finished at the end of January, the

candidates took the necessary certification exams that will give

them a great chance to become recognized as experts in the

market.

Nextsense is proud that the candidates showed great interest

during the trainings and that most of them successfully passed

the certification exams. We hope that with their knowledge,

they will be able to find a job in the Macedonian IT market.

The ICT market in Macedonia has continuously grown in the past years. Last year the number of employees in the ICT market for the first time was bigger than the number of employees in the communications market.

Conference tourism is one of the tourism components with supreme potential, yet

least well acknowledged component of our tourism industry today.

Macedonia’s rich cultural heritage, people’s hospitality, the modern hotels and several

multipurpose business facilities make it an attractive and accessible destination for

conference tourism.

Exploring Macedonia aims to unite these venues and other service providers in order

to develop and promote the conference tourism possibilities in Macedonia. Combined

with its knowledge, specialist skills and its effective coordination of venues and

support services, Exploring Macedonia helps its clients improve their key processes

for an achievement of higher operational efficiency at their conference.

By creating synthesis between tourism, innovation and technology, Exploring

Conference tourism is one of the tourism components with supreme potential, yet

least well acknowledged component of our tourism industry today.

Macedonia’s rich cultural heritage, people’s hospitality, the modern hotels and several

multipurpose business facilities make it an attractive and accessible destination for

conference tourism.

Exploring Macedonia aims to unite these venues and other service providers in order

to develop and promote the conference tourism possibilities in Macedonia. Combined

with its knowledge, specialist skills and its effective coordination of venues and

support services, Exploring Macedonia helps its clients improve their key processes

for an achievement of higher operational efficiency at their conference.

By creating synthesis between tourism, innovation and technology, Exploring

Macedonia together with Nextsense are fully committed in helping the conference

industry in Macedonia grow. Since technology is inescapable and vital, Nextsense and

Exploring Macedonia add value and functionality by integrating effective online

platform and overall IT support at their client’s conference.

MEMBER OF

During the past years Nextsense has significantly

broadened and deepened its understanding of the many

faces of the Corporate and Social Responsibility.

This year we support a very big project that will improve the lives

of people with handicap and dysfunctions.

The Association “Dajte ni krilja” is formed to support the people

with handicap and dysfunctions and provide them better future.

The association has started spreading its worthy cause to all

people in Macedonia, trying to change the view on the people with

handicap and dysfunctions. The aim of the whole project is to

make people aware that people with handicap and dysfunctions

are not different; they can have social life as normal as it can be to

them; they can be equally part of the society; they can work and

contribute to themselves and to the people around them.

Martin Luther King , Jr had once said: "The time is always right to

do what is right."

Nextsense is part

of this project by

providing the

n e c e s s a r y

support to the

Association through

the design of the web page and social network profiles that will

serve as be information pages to all people who are willing to share

helpful information to the association members, give advice to the

people with handicap and dysfunctions; support them and

provide better future for them.

Together with Httpool, the daughter company of Nextsense, we’d

like to make a network of contacts and supporters who can bring

positive energy and help the whole project in providing better lives

to these people. We want to be part of their lives because we

believe that value has a value only if its value is valued.

“I was always

disturbed by the

fact that in

Macedonia the

people with

handicap and

dysfunctions have no chance and

conditions for their optimal functioning,

starting from their early childhood until

the end of their life. This group feels

deprived, ignored and hopeless. They

are a group that not many

people would like

to speak about;

even their

families are

ashamed of

them, not to

speak for the

environment

around them.

Often the

families who

take care of

these people

have not

enough funds

to provide medicine and treatments, and

the country does not have enough trained

people and infrastructure to enrich their

functionality. Implementing the children

with dysfunctions into the schools is very

slow process without special education

programs suitable for them. There are few

employers who are willing and want to

employ people with dysfunctions. Those

who do not have anyone close to them, or

a caring family, end up in institutions not

suitable for their needs, not to speak for

those who end up on streets with little or

no chance to survive because they have no

place to stay nor basic livelihood. The

people with handicap should be put on

pedestal, cared, respected, loved,

accepted and understood. They are here

between us and we should not be afraid of

them nor avoid them. They are our

responsibility, to each of us a bit, and not

just to the state; they are the mirror of our

social responsibility and solidarity. The

sadness, the burden they have is bigger

than the fact that we cannot look at them

and help because it’s difficult for us to

grief over their destiny. We need to give

them a hand, to help them and to give

them wings.

I have always wanted to help people with

handicap. I have sang for them at many

humanitarian concerts, but that is not

enough. We need to change things

together, and the first thing is to give the

love and understanding.

Together with the members of the

association “Dajte ni krilja” where I am

member as well as one of the founders, we

plan to change many things and to provide

better future to the people with handicap

and dysfunctions.“

wings)

and give us your support.
