These guidelines aim to ensure that products and software remain secure throughout their lifecycle, mitigating cyber threats and enhancing security resilience.
NetApp’s commitment to security ensures that its products align with the Secure By Demand principles, providing robust security measures for OT owners and operators. By adhering to these guidelines, organizations can enhance their cybersecurity posture and protect their critical infrastructure from emerging cyber threats.

In an increasingly digital-first world, productivity and efficiency hinge on the tools we use every day. Among these tools, PDFs and eSignatures are pivotal to workflows across industries, yet their true potential often remains untapped due to cost and accessibility barriers. This presentation uncovers how businesses can unlock significant opportunities by rethinking their approach to these essential tools.

The discussion begins by addressing a critical challenge: many organisations restrict access to productivity tools like PDFs and eSignatures due to high costs. This creates a “productivity gap,” leaving large portions of the workforce without the resources they need to collaborate effectively. Using compelling data, we’ll explore the tangible impact this has on efficiency, workflows, and business outcomes.

Attendees will learn how Nitro’s solutions make these tools accessible to every employee at half the cost of legacy vendors, breaking down the barriers that hinder productivity. By offering affordable and intuitive PDF and eSign solutions, Nitro enables organisations to create faster, more collaborative workflows and empower their teams to focus on meaningful work.

The presentation also highlights Nitro’s analytics capabilities, which provide actionable insights into document usage, eSign adoption, and paper consumption. This visibility not only helps optimise workflows but also aligns with sustainability initiatives, enabling businesses to track and reduce their environmental footprint while meeting corporate social responsibility goals.

Another key focus is the significant cost savings achieved by switching to Nitro. Organizations can reinvest the resources saved from overpriced solutions into strategic initiatives like innovation and training, fuelling growth and boosting outcomes.

Finally, we explore how PDFs and eSignatures are the backbone of modern workflows. As one of the most widely used file types globally, PDFs are integral to communication, collaboration, and decision-making across industries. Nitro transforms these tools into enablers of innovation and agility, ensuring businesses stay competitive in today’s fast-paced environment.

This presentation provides real-world data and actionable insights, helping attendees discover how rethinking PDFs and eSignatures can transform productivity, drive sustainability, and create lasting value. The numbers are compelling—Nitro is the smarter choice for businesses looking to achieve more with less.
