The best way to resolve the issue of multiple schedulers is with an enterprise scheduler that can build cross-platform job streams to handle the different applications.
Learn how you can effectively and efficiently control privileged UNIX and Linux accounts from accessing data or executing any application by using centralized access management.
Learn how to reduce the risk of insider fraud, streamline regulatory compliance, and greatly reduce administration efforts with an effective privileged access management solution.
Resetting disabled passwords is an inevitable activity. Read this guide to find out you can reduce password management costs and increase efficiency with an easy-to-use tool that allows IBM i users to reset their own passwords.
In order to make cloud computing highly available and easy to use, there has to be an infrastructure in the background, like enterprise scheduling software.
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of...
The cost of a data breach can throw businesses into turmoil and derail careers. And that cost continues to rise.
The potential for significant damage is massive on servers like IBM's Power Systems servers running IBM i, because they’re widely used for database management, financial data processing, and business intelligence—all mission-critical applications and workloads.
While servers running...
Insiders are responsible for 34 percent of data breaches—and insiders are also the most difficult threat to control control on IBM i. You can't lock them out completely because your IBM i users need at least some level of access to do their jobs.
So, how do you ensure users have only the access they need without overburdening IT with manual processes that...
Before you commit the resources to develop an in-house solution for exit point security, read our list of issues to consider. You might decide it’s neither easy nor cost-effective to set up and monitor your own in-house solution.
When Malware Attacks Your IBM i, AIX, and Linux Servers Guide
Malware and ransomware attacks have increased, halting day-to-day operations and bringing organizations to their knees. Businesses know anti malware is essential to protecting PCs from malicious programs, but many don’t realize the value of server-level protection until the damage is done.
This guide examines the real-world...
Over the years, users have relied on commands like STRSQL and RUNSQL to provide instant and powerful access to the data on their Power Systems™ servers. All types of users—from programmers to system administrators to end users—use these commands as their primary interface for extracting and updating data.
However, allowing a user to view, update, and even delete data without any control by the...
Even when user profiles are painstakingly set up, keeping them consistent and secure can be an uphill battle. All it takes is one over-privileged user and your most critical data could be changed, deleted, or worse.
You need help—not only to set up new users with discretion, but also to keep them consistent across roles, departments, and systems.
Our exclusive white paper includes expert advice...
Automation has the potential to transform the way we work. It allows organizations drive efficiencies, increase reliability, and cut costs. But not everyone is on board with the change. Automation can be frightening to employees who worry about losing their jobs to robots and computers.
This white paper from Computing tackles the problem of how to go forward implementing automation while...
The IFS is one of the most ignored parts of the system, yet it enables many of the most powerful and most used features on IBM i today. Overlooking the ways in which IBM i utilizes the IFS could weaken your security.
IBM’s customers are turning to Power VM virtualization to consolidate multiple workloads onto fewer systems increasing server utilization and reducing cost. However a virtualized server landscape on several different IBM platforms (IBM Power Systems™, IBM System x®, and IBM BladeCenter®) may reduce hardware complexity but this puts a strain on supporting the entire lifecycle of analysis,...
Barely a day passes without new headlines reporting another cyber attack, policy violation, or data breach. Secretly, we breathe a sigh of relief that it happened to someone else, but most of us know that we’ll all eventually feel the impact in some capacity.
Organizations facing a more advanced threat landscape and a complex regulatory environment require a solution which addresses the need for securely controlling access to existing systems and applications. In addition, this solution should not increase the workload on support, application providers or the end user.
