LIVE IBM i HACKING – ON-DEMAND WEBINAR
Demystifying IBM i System SecurityWhy IBM i System needs to be secured, and why wasn’t it an issue in the past 35 years?
We have proven that breaking into IBM i Systems from a remote location and escalating access rights to a privileged user is possible and can take less than a minute for a malicious actor. We did it. However, we are white hackers and reported more than 11 critical vulnerabilities so far, all vendor-patched with CVEs.
It’s time to shift your paradigm: enlighten the black hole in your IBM i System – we show you why and how.
CIOs and CISOs have been challenged by securing their mission-critical data kept in their old-time proven solutions, operating in the heart of their infrastructure, such as the IBM i System. Without the necessary tools, it’s impossible to have visibility in their traditional systems.
Key takeaways – what you will learn:
