Never take the correct time for granted again when you read this informative white paper explaining how a little-known protocol keeps entire networks on the correct time.

Today’s sophisticated distributed networks rely on precise timekeeping for a multitude of chores such as database coordination, authentication, and archiving. Plus, many industries have standards that require accurate transaction time stamps.
