What is Software Engineering

First of all, we need to explain what Software Engineering is for you to better understand this branch.


Software Engineering is an area focused on the development of software and programs that involve technology.


A DHCP Engineer (dynamic host client protocol) is an IT professional usually involved in the maintenance of the connectivity of network for an organization.


Therefore, engineers in this area are responsible for creating specific digital platforms, games, applications and systems.


When developing these systems, for example, the objective is to increase the productivity and performance of a certain area or company, as is the case with banks and medical offices.

If you made it this far, you must have already understood how important the engineering and construction sector is for the growth of a country, as it is through it that businesses of all kinds rise and move.


Just think that, through the sector, the main human needs are built and made viable, be they for housing, mobility, job creation, health and safety, education or group experience.


Thus, we understand that it was through engineering that Brazil emerged as an autonomous country, today self-sufficient in food production, in addition to being an exporter for its disposal lines. The housing construction sector moves billions every year and fulfills the dream of thousands of Brazilians to own their own home. But let's go, finally, to the numbers.


A PC server technician will ensure that your business gets the server migration and repairs necessary to stay as functional as possible.


According to EXAME magazine, in 2018 the sector resumed its growth and accelerated its Construction Confidence Index - ICST, encouraging businessmen in the sector and heating up the economy. Information on Brazil's GDP and Civil Construction , according to official data released by IBGE, also shows growth in 2018. In addition, previous data show that the warming continues in the first half of 2019. The slight increase, although gradual and with some normal fluctuations for the recovery phase, it already creates a new impetus for the sector, which believes in the improvement for the coming years.


The positive movement of the category also gradually increases the indices of the sectors of industry and commerce, which accompany the development and sales, which are heated up with new works and the increase in the purchasing power of employees and collaborators. The productive chain related to the environment is mobilized and thus stimulates the growth of Brazil itself.

Optimized recruitment and selection process


As we mentioned in a previous topic, retention starts long before talent is acquired . The recruitment and selection process must be optimized, considering practices that contribute to a more adequate selection of the company's talents.


Managers and HR must be aligned to define the details of each open position in a more intelligent and strategic way. Teams should be assembled with a view to performance as a whole and not just evaluating individual tasks. This will make the company start to hire better, reducing the turnover rate. 



There are different types of turnover, check out our video

Plan for jobs and wages

The job and salary plan is a strategy that promotes a sense of fairness among employees. HR must be based on market research and define the requirements of each level of each position in the company very well. This detail brings clarity and values ​​professionals who are more committed to improving their professional profile.


Career path



The career plan is the tool that aligns the expectations of each professional with the possibilities that the organization has to offer.


He is responsible for showing the employee how much he still has to grow if he remains in the company what he needs to do to do so. Without it, the employee may feel unmotivated and without perspective.


Performance management


Performance management is the best way to manage teams based on their potential. In this format, managers are closer to their subordinates and need to get to know each one better.


This allows you to take advantage of the qualities of each talent in the best way and monitor the points to be developed. Through a performance evaluation , it is possible to monitor the floor and the evolution of employees.

With more and more companies automating their services and creating their own digital platforms, the software engineering profession was considered the 2nd best in the IT area in terms of growth and remuneration, according to the website specializing in technology careers, CareerCast .

The software consists of the “logical part” of the computer, which includes the operating system and programs. So, basically, these professionals design and guide the development of programs, applications and systems, so that they meet the requirements and fulfill the determined functions.

Among the main duties of the software engineer are:

Develop software and apps
Manage software related projects
Architect the structural design of programs
Perform system tests
In addition to these, these engineers may have functions related to the administration of databases, maintenance of systems and even some documentation, related to project management and the composition of instruction manuals.

A network engineer is a technology professional who is highly skilled in maintaining the connectivity of networks in terms of data, voice, calls, videos and wireless network services.

Training to work in software engineering
In addition to the Software Engineering courses, the Computer Science courses also train professionals to work in this market. However, there are differences between the two types of training.

While engineers learn about the processes involved in developing and maintaining programs, computer scientists have more studies focused on theory, linked to mathematical models, algorithms and process logic.

The corporate world is increasingly globalized and connected. To guarantee the efficiency of its operation, a company that wants to act among the main players in the market, needs to be able to process files stored in units distributed around the world and allow access and exchange of information, remotely and in real time. Increasingly, companies are investing in digital transformation tools (DX) and 3rd Platform Technologies, such as cloud, big data and analytics, mobility and social business.

  In order to support investment in these technologies, it is essential to develop a good network strategy, which allows quick, secure and effective access to this information, which is often confidential and crucial to the success of the business. The choice of the type of network to be used must be based on four points: cost-benefit, security, privacy and control.

  In this scenario, we see a trend gaining a lot of strength in the international market, the SD-WAN - Software Defined WAN technology. Known as an excellent alternative to lower the cost and offer more security and control of the network, SD-WAN technology promises to dominate Brazil in the coming years. According to IDC forecasts, the global SD-WAN market is expected to reach US $ 8 billion in 2021, an expectation that reveals the promising global potential of this tool.

  This growth will be driven by digital transformation (DX) and 3rd Platform Technologies. The trend is that these digital transformation technologies increase the flow of information, increasing the importance of the network for business.

  The exchange of information via SD-WAN offers several advantages for companies, generating more agility, saving resources, greater latency control and more security for data stored in the cloud.

  SD-WAN technology allows SDN to be formatted to quickly create an intelligent “hybrid WAN”, encompassing an IP VPN for businesses. SD-WAN can use any transmission protocol (ADSL, 4G, MPLS, dedicated links and the Internet), to provide the best costs and benefits for the most sensitive applications.

This type of situation occurs when there is an obstruction in the air vents, such as accumulation of dust or other material.


This problem affects the cooler, which is the hardware responsible for cooling the machine. Another cause is problems related to the processor, which is very important hardware in the computer as well.


If it is not in good condition, it can cause unexpected shutdowns, overheating the parts, which will literally melt.


If the computer burns completely, it will not be an easy task to recover the information stored on it.


In addition, you will need to wait for the entire process to fix hardware problems of this type. This involves diagnosing, purchasing, exchanging and testing, to make sure that the computer will return to working as before.


Therefore, invest in preventive maintenance , which includes cleaning the air vents and testing the cooler. Ask the technician to confirm that the fans spin correctly, without obstruction.


Another great aid to avoid heating is the thermal paste . It must be applied over the heatsink of the cooler and also on the CPU, increasing the adhesion between these two hardware and cooling them more efficiently.


If IT Technicians are unable to solve a problem, it is escalated to the senior team.


But keep your eye on the thermal grease. Over time, it can dry out and lose the properties that assist in cooling the parts.

When we have a NAS server in our home, we usually have it always on, and we can access it remotely over the Internet using different methods (FTP, FTPES, SFTP, via VPN to the NAS itself, etc.). It is possible that cybercriminals try to attack our server, to access with administrator permissions and take full control of the NAS server. Today in RedesZone we are going to explain everything you can do to protect your NAS server from the manufacturer QNAP, because QNAP incorporates different configuration options and software to greatly improve security and avoid attacks.


NAS servers in general are the target of cybercriminals to steal confidential information, both in home and business environments. QNAP is one of the largest NAS server manufacturers in the world, and it stands to reason that it is the target of cybercriminals. If you want to protect your NAS server as best as possible to avoid external attacks (from the Internet) and also through the local home or business network, pay close attention to this complete configuration tutorial where we show you everything you must do to protect it.


Disable UPnP on the router

The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the applications of certain devices connected to the local network to tell the router to open a certain port (or several ports) so that they are accessible from the outside. This protocol is useful for users with little knowledge who do not know how to open ports manually on the router, but it also brings many problems, because we will not know exactly which ports are opening (unless we enter the router, UPnP status).


IP cameras, NAS and other devices in our home can make use of this protocol to autonomously open ports on the router, which is a security risk. The best thing you can do is disable this protocol on your router, you must go into the router's web configuration, in the NAT section you will have the UPnP and it will allow you to disable it. Depending on the router model you have, this configuration option will be in one place or another. In our case, we are using pfSense as the main router, and it is in "Services / UPnP", as you can see, we have it disabled by default.


The role of a server technician is to ensure that the network infrastructure in place supports a business.

A study by the Independent Security Evaluators  (ISE ) consultancy found that the industry focuses almost exclusively on protecting people's health records and rarely addresses protecting patient health from the perspective of a cyber threat. With this focus, organizations perceive threat actors as 'unsophisticated adversaries', as individual hackers.


See more: Managed Storage Services


ISE believes that these institutions ignore the potential for more sophisticated cyber attacks on hospitals by political groups of hackactivists, organized crime and terrorists who are highly motivated and well-funded and as a result several surfaces are left unprotected and the attack strategies that can result in damages to patients, they are not taken into account '.


Cyber ​​attacks and a death

In September 2020, Universal Health Services (UHS) , a network of hospitals and health services with more than 400 facilities in the U.S., Puerto Rico and the United Kingdom, was attacked by Russian ransomware 'Ryuk' .


This was not the first cyber attack on a UHS hospital. Security company Advance Intel through the Andariel intelligence platform reported that trojan malware infected Universal Health Services in the course of 2020.


The UHS network has not confirmed the details of the attack, but reports from UHS officials indicate that the attack was the result of a successful phishing expedition.


The attack deactivated computers and telephone systems and forced hospitals to switch back to manual, paper-based systems to continue operations. They also had to redirect ambulances and move surgical patients to other unaffected facilities.


In general, in large and complex organizations, cleaning and restoring the system is not simple or fast. A UHS press release on 10/12/2020 announced "... we had no indication that any patient or employee's data was accessed, copied or misused". 


He also stated that operations returned to normal after a total of 16 days. That downtime cost more than $ 1,000,000 a day or more, which was a serious blow to UHS finances. It is not known whether the institution paid the ransom.


A cyber attack always has consequences for organizations, but when a ransomware hits the health segment, there is a real risk of death.


In the case of UHS there were unconfirmed rumors that four patients died because doctors had to wait for the results of laboratory tests delivered by couriers, instead of electronic delivery. While these are rumors, there is a known case of a patient who died due to a ransomware attack at a hospital in Europe in September 2020.


The note delivered by the ransomware showed that the intended target was not actually the hospital, but Heinrich Heine University. The police contacted the hackers through the instructions in the ransom note left by the malware and explained the error, after which the hackers withdrew their request and provided the decryption key. However, a patient with a serious illness referred to another distant hospital, died.


IT Analyst has to review existing IT systems and internal processes. They have to work in collaboration with the management to understand IT objectives.
