VXL Fusion EMM combines mobile and fixed device management
Leading software developer VXL Software has launched the latest version of its device- management suite, Fusion EMM, which can now manage not only mobile devices but also desktop and laptop PCs, servers and network-connected devices.
VXL Software has released the latest version of its market-leading device-management suite, Fusion EMM. Previously aimed solely at mobile devices, Fusion EMM now incorporates the key functionality of its sister product, Fusion UDM Premium – including the ability to manage PCs, servers and network-connected devices.
According to VXL’s VP of worldwide sales, Frank Noon, this not only makes life easier for customers, it also significantly reduces costs. “The latest Fusion EMM is really two products in one,” says Noon, “mobile-device manager and fixed-device manager. Previously, this required two servers – with two sets of server licensing costs. Building the desktop-management capabilities of Fusion UDM Premium into Fusion EMM halves those costs, because only one server is needed.”
Fusion EMM can manage devices running VXL Linux, Windows 7 and 10 Professional, Windows Embedded 7, 8 and 10 IoT, Windows Mobile, Windows POS, Android, iOS and MacOS – all from a single console.
“Device management and support are vastly simplified,” says Noon. “The reality of today’s computing infrastructure is organisations use multiple devices – both mobile and fixed. Fusion EMM enables IT teams to manage all of them using one tool.”
Fusion EMM boasts a comprehensive feature set, including agentless discovery; application, browser, device, e-mail and content management; inventory, kiosk mode security; monitoring and analytics; organisational unit/group management; comprehensive security management – and much more.
VXL Software’s goal is to provide powerful device management at a very affordable price. “I’d say that our previous product was the best priced on the market,” says Noon, “but the new combination of mobile and fixed device management, without any increase in price – and massively reduced total cost of ownership – makes it unbeatable.”
Fusion EMM is available now.
Organisations wishing to try Fusion EMM can do so free, by downloading an evaluation copy from VXL Software’s website:http://www.vxlsoftware.com/evaluation

XMLRPC compared to wp-login as an attack target in WordPress. Which is more frequently attacked and how to protect your site against brute force attacks.
One possibility is that 36 servers at Amazon EC2 have been compromised and they have been used to launch a very rapid and wide-spread brute force attack during the past 2 weeks. That attack generated over 144 million failed login attempts across the sites we monitor.
An alternative theory is that a developer may be using EC2 to host an application that is trying to sign into WordPress websites using XMLRPC. The application may not handle bad user credentials correctly and may just keep retrying.

In-depth article detailing exactly how to do VNC over WebSocket tunnel. And excellent writeup/tutorial!
Excerpt:
To evaluate if the WebSocket is a viable solution, we used VNCPlay[a], a set of tools to measure interactive performance. VNCPlay includes a VNC client that allows to record an interactive session and replay it under different system configurations. During the replay, the session output is saved into a log file. Two or more session logs can be fed to an analysis tool, included in VNCPlay, that produce response time statistics, which can be further elaborated. Response times to user activities are considered a good measure of interactive performance.
We built a test environment, composed of 3 LANs, that represent our “internet LAN”, the local network and the remote office network, and corresponds to the central, left and right parts in the figures above, respectively. The local and office LANs access to the internet LAN through two ZeroShell[b] router devices, each one configured to NAT the internal addresses to the router’s internet LAN address and to serve as default gatewayfor the internal LAN. The local LAN hosts the VNC client and the tunnel server with a port forwarding rule on the router to allow to connect to the tunnel server from the internet LAN. Similarly the office LAN hosts the tunnel client program and the machine running VNC server.
We used VNCPlay to record a test session, over a direct connection to the target machine with a Linux Mint OS.
