MEDCA Discusses DCIM for Risk Management at Dec. 6 CPS

Eric Rigney, EVP of the Media & Entertainment Data Center Alliance (MEDCA) and Sean Tajkowski, technical director of MEDCA, will give the audience at the Dec. 6 Content Protection Summit (CPS) in Los Angeles ideas on securing their media and entertainment operations.

In the session “DCIM for Risk Management in M&E Operations” the team from MEDCA will discuss how Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) systems centrally monitor, measure, manage, and control the security and health of a facility’s digital infrastructure, from WiFi, storage, and servers, to power, cooling, and security access, and more.

M&E companies such as ARRI are already introducing DCIM products of their own, providing fault-finding information to staff located anywhere in the world. How can DCIM support virtual and traditional production operations today, and why aren’t they being adopted? Imagine facility security and health alerts on your watch, monitoring the stage’s digital infrastructure, notifying you of a pending back-up failure or power outage. That’s the promise of DCIM.

Keynotes, panel discussions, and technology showcases at CPS will offer senior-level content and information security experts the latest around content protection across the entire supply chain for entertainment. Production security, post-production workflows and the growing ecosystems of platforms and connectivity that are driving the secure content creation and distribution process will all be discussed, along with anti-piracy and IP protection as the industry works collaboratively to secure our most important assets.

Presented by Fortinet and produced by MESA, CDSA’s Content Protection Summit is sponsored by Convergent Risks, Richey May Technology Solutions, GeoComply, Signiant, Verimatrix, Shift Media, EIDR and EZDRM.
