The Mainframe continues to be the workhorse for many organisations; it deals with a diverse range of workloads including cloud, mobile and big data. Therefore, the mainframe hosts highly valuable data that is regarded by many as the crown jewels of the enterprise. Some organisations are not aware of how dependent their business is on the modern mainframe; consequently security efforts are sometimes diverted resulting in business units operating with unacceptable levels of risk. Lets face it, no one likes to be on the receiving end of audit concerns that are flagged as high risk, which often leads to more scrutiny and effort on your part. In this session, you will learn about:
• Best practices that help reduce those high risk audit concerns
• Improving working practices in the areas of Security Administration, Monitoring, Compliance and Auditing
• Implementing strong and sustainable controls using the modern mainframe
• Demonstrating to Auditors and Senior Management your ability to manage risk in a proactive manner
