Investment objective in the Cybersecurity laboratory, developed jointly by A10 and CLM, is to have the necessary means to form channels, in the face of the tremendous security challenges generated by the growing use of IoT and 5G

CLM University, as part of its investment program, acquired for the Iot / 5G Cybersecurity Laboratory, recently launched by CLM and A10 Networks, the first Lenovo Edge Server sold in Latin America. This is the Lenovo Edge SE350, developed to handle a wide variety of workloads, such as IT infrastructure, collaboration, inbound cloud and the Internet of Things, powered by 5G.

The investment objective is to guarantee the necessary means for the formation of CLM's sales channels, since the CLM / A10 Cybersecurity Laboratory for IoT / 5G was created to enable the ecosystem to deal with the challenges of information security in networks distributed, with connected IoT devices, via 5G technology.

The country manager of A10 Networks in Brazil, Ivan Marzariolli, explains that the investment will allow the laboratory to achieve its objectives more quickly, especially in the training of the ecosystem in the security problems of 5G and IoT and in the specific security solutions of 5G of A10.

Rodrigo Guercio, president of Lenovo Data Center Group, emphasizes the partnership with CLM and supports its strategy of enabling channels in the new technologies that will form the infrastructure of the accelerated digital transformation that the world is going through.

“We are talking about a new level of visibility to adjust performance and access within security requirements. We must not forget that IoT devices will be the target and source of several attacks, such as DDoS, ”recalls CLM founder Francisco Camargo. Also according to the executive, the heterogeneity of equipment, from hundreds of different manufacturers, in dozens of locations, the lack of standardization, the lack of knowledge of vulnerabilities, is a real nightmare for the organizations' CISOS. “This initiative aims to equip CLM University with more and more resources for the formation of its ecosystem for the era of accelerated transformation, ”concludes Daniela Porto, leader of CLM University.

It is worth remembering that 5G, with its greater bandwidth, speed and intelligence, drives the Internet of Things, with more and more devices connected, which results in an explosion of data. Likewise, it poses huge security challenges for companies, since attacks can be initiated from any infected device both externally and internally. In terms of intrusion, it is not only about the number and heterogeneity of the devices, but also their performance requirements and exclusive profile compositions, being essential several policies to manage them from a perspective of security visibility.
