Successful breaches of information privacy can cause massive damage to a company’s operations, finances, and, worse, their image.
Such breaches could:
- Result in loss of data critical to your day-to-day business
- Bring critical transactional systems to a halt
- Cost your business up to millions of dollars per day in lost transactions
- Be difficult to repair and have financial consequences difficult to quantify
Ensuring customer and partner trust requires a comprehensive security strategy that includes all systems that process and manage sensitive information, including mainframe systems that are at the heart of many operations. RSA Security and Rocket Software have teamed up to offer the proven line of RSA BSAFE® security products for IBM® zSeries® to help you extend strong data security controls all the way to your legacy mainframe systems—allowing you to build trust throughout your infrastructure.
Many companies rely on mainframe systems such as the IBM zSeries® as the heart of their core business operations. These systems maintain critical information about business processes and transactions that is not only highly sensitive, but is often relied on to meet corporate reporting and other compliance goals. However, it is common for users to be able to run ad-hoc queries and otherwise manipulate this data beyond what was originally intended. How do you then protect this data effectively on the mainframe in a way that is not going to impede the performance and throughput requirements of your transactional operations?
The RSA BSAFE® data security products now available for the IBM® zSeries® will allow you to apply the deeper security controls necessary without compromising the throughput, reliability, and performance you depend on from your mainframe systems. These products are flexible and highly customizable allowing you to effectively protect sensitive data on your mainframe whether it is being stored to disk, committed to backup, or transmitted over public or private networks.
Unlike alternatives such as open source, our technology is enhanced regularly to address the latest vulnerabilities as well as advancements in cryptographic technology. Our products are built on open and proven industry standards, many of which have been developed and championed by RSA Security, offering you interoperability and ease of integration into existing infrastructure.
RSA Professional Services and Rocket Software also offer application security design assessment services specifically for the mainframe that can help you spot existing vulnerabilities in your applications as well as help you make secure design decisions to avoid problems later.
