Please note that this is a virtual meeting and will be held over WebEx. We hope you all are staying healthy, and we look forward to the day where we can safely meet in person again.

How do you get started with z/OS Container Extension? Jovanna Hadley will briefly cover a high level overview of what is z/OS Container Extension, as well as the planning information required to get this address space up and running in your environment.

In today’s environment, cyber incidents and ransomware attacks are on the rise.
The rapid shift to digital has only increased exposure and likelihood of an attack and any failure to recover your critical data after a malicious cyberattack can and will compromise your business.

Matthias Bangert will detail how the IBM Z Cyber Vault Solution provides air gapped data protection, constant monitoring and tools. Unlike alternatives, the IBM Z Cyber Vault doesn’t just provide you with data copies but actively monitors for data corruption so that your enterprise detects a cyber-attack faster and is ready to respond in a heartbeat

Finally, Enrique Gutiérrez Álvarez and Vikalp Paliwal will cover how to ensure enterprise security with Guardium Data Protection 11.3. Topics to look forward to in this presentation include:

  • Introducing the Universal Connector: A lightweight new way to monitor
  • More support for Modern Cloud environments
  • Easier compliance with policy rules tagging
  • Enhanced Unified Health & Deployment Dashboard
  • Expanding Connected Security – Enhanced collaboration with SOC
