Network Security Roadmap

This session will discuss how to address the increasing number of security compliance requirements IT organizations are facing.  The session will introduce how z/OS CS can assist in protecting the operating system platform from malicious attacks through the IP network and how to secure the data that is transmitted over the network to/from IP applications running on the z/OS platform. Topics such as IPSec (secure Virtual Private Networks), IPSec on zIIP processors, IP filtering, Intrusion Detection and prevention (IDS), securing application access through authentication and encryption using SSL/TLS (including transparent SSL/TLS processing by the z/OS Communications Server) - will all be introduced.

Tracks: Enterprise Data Center Management, Network Support and Management, Security Administration and Security and Privacy Best Practices
