Using the Network Time Protocol, or NTP, computers at a remote location can set their clocks to the UTC provided by an NTP server at the main facility to ensure that all computer clocks are ...

How to Test an NTP Server. In order for a server in your business to sync its time with that of a client computer, it needs to use what is known as Network Time Protocol (NTP).

NTP's job is to keep time and broadcast it so that clocks on all machines connected to a network are in synch. This matters for many reasons, among them consistency of log files – if every machine on ...

Network time protocol (NTP) is a mechanism used to synchronize the date and time over IP based networks. Cisco Unified Communications platforms have a built in NTP client to ensure the proper date ...

This is an example of the lengths to which Network Time Protocol aficionados will go in search of slightly better performance from their NTP servers.

In a series of tests run in July, the Moonv6 team focused on the NTP, which is used to synchronize the timing of network equipment for regular network operations as well as antihacking and ...

Sometime on the morning of April 3, Microsoft's Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers went haywire. At first, Microsoft's NTP server (time.windows.com) reported the time being an hour later than it ...

In this case it’s using the precise timekeeping abilities of the satellites to build a microsecond-accurate network time protocol (NTP) server.

An attack that prevented sensitive computers and servers from receiving regular time-synchronization updates could cause malfunctions on a mass scale.

Network admins take note: A set of vulnerabilities can bypass HTPPS with ease and result in spying, outages and authentication bypass. Discovered on Wednesday by Cisco's security intelligence and ...

NTP servers help people synchronize their servers to very precise time increments. Recently, the protocol was found to suffer from a condition that could be exploited by DoS attackers.
