live in it securely. We focus on that because we want to make security that’s easy to use, as when these processes are cumbersome they inhibit adoption and people simply won’t use them. So, we need to combine the goal of tech that is powerful in its ability to protect and not being an inhibitor to use.” To further meet this goal, AMD is working to ensure these new technologies are set to enhance efforts towards digital transformation by having the ability to be applied to legacy applications that may have been in place for 10-15 years. Both Aylor and Pendekanti believe it’s important for businesses to take a proactive stance. While the likes of Dell EMC and AMD can provide the building blocks towards the kind of transformation that can reap the benefits of IoT, it also requires software developers to become part of the solution and add the physical implementation and controls required. Pendekanti concludes: “We always tell our customers and partners to look at a solution from the perspective of three Ps – product, processes and people. You can have the best product, but if you don’t have the right trained people, it doesn’t help. Likewise, if you have the right people trained and have the right products and you don’t have the right processes you’re prone to fail. So, we focus on the three Ps to ensure we have successful deployment, covering all bases and offering the right price performance and making sure we have the right security built in to help our customers focus on the best performance of their offering.”
