Join Kurt Thomas and George Hibler for a live webinar where they’ll discuss why implementing Zero Trust on the IBM i is important, what Zero Trust on the IBM i looks like and how to implement it.
Fortra today announced the latest release of Powertech SIEM Agent for IBM i. The new version provides enhanced flexibility to meet the demands of increasingly complex IT environments.
Long-time security expert, Pat Botz, recently joined Fortra. Botz goes way back in the computer industry. He wrote the Basic compiler and CAD tools for Control Data supercomputers and then lead the development of CAD tools for its AIX workstation line three decades ago. He eventually became a lead security architect for the IBM i platform, and left Big Blue a number of years ago to start his own security firm, Botz & Associates. Dan sat down to have a chat with Chris Heim, chief executive officer of Fortra, and John Vanderwall, vice president and business unit manager for security services at the company, as well as Botz, who now has a senior security services consultant position at the company.
Policy Minder has been expanded to empower security monitoring for data stored on Amazon S3, giving IT professionals peace of mind any misconfigurations or oversights will be detected and rectified.
Despite all the IBM i security vendors that Fortra has bought over the years--and there have been at least five of them--the company has lacked one key security capability valued by enterprises: encryption.
