The job of every security system is to connect users to the system resources to which they are authorised. At the same time, the IT infrastructure must manage resources and users so that access to programs and data are protected and intrusion is detected across the entire enterprise. The challenge is to manage and maintain a consistent security strategy to allow resource protection without negatively impacting productivity.
The IBM security strategy
IBM System z working with key ISVs offers a comprehensive set of support elements that can address a wide range of security issues. By providing the ability to monitor and manage security, these new capabilities help position System z as the central management point or epicenter for enterprise-wide security. From user identification and authentication, access control and auditing to distributed directory, networking security and security administration, System z hardware is designed to provide integrity, process isolation and cryptographic capability to help address your specific security requirements. On top of this solid hardware foundation, System z operating systems offer a variety of customisable security elements within the framework of the Security Server and Communication Server components.
IBM System z continues to extend the value of the mainframe by leveraging robust security solutions to help meet the needs of e-business today with an eye toward the future. System z servers have implemented leading-edge technologies such as high-performance cryptography, multilevel security, large-scale digital certificate authority and lifecycle management, improved Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) performance and advanced Resource Access Control Facility function. And with the addition of z/OS Intrusion Detection Services, System z has enhanced the system's ability to resist network-based attacks while embodying industry and international standards.

* While expected to execute on all System z hardware, the Linux Utilities have been tested by IBM only on selected System z hardware in a z/OS and Linux workload scenario. For the software versions, levels and/or releases, each of the Linux Utilities have unique requirements, all of which are documented in their individual write-ups. Testing is based on a controlled environment. No assurance is given that an individual user will achieve throughput or performance equivalent to that which may be set forth herein.
