Why mainframe security matters

Wussten Sie, dass bis zu 71 % der Finanzdaten eines Unternehmens auf dem Mainframe gespeichert sein können? Entgegen der landläufigen Meinung sind Mainframes angreifbar. Viele Unternehmen vernachlässigen aufgrund von Mythen die Mainframe-Sicherheit und riskieren so Sicherheitslücken. Jede IBM® z/OS®-Umgebung weist Schwachstellen auf – werden diese ausgenutzt, können Hacker auf alle darin enthaltenen Daten zugreifen.

Fortify defenses. Without the oversights

Elevate your mainframe’s security posture with Rocket z/Assure VAP, ensuring your system remains resilient against modern threats while optimizing its performance with mainframe vulnerability scanning.

  • Automated, real-time, binary code scanning: We make it possible for enterprises to scan the operating system layer of the mainframe to identify zero-day vulnerabilities without the use of signature files.
  • Precise vulnerability detection: Utilize the power of the Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST) model, pinpointing real vulnerabilities and guiding developers directly to the issues.
  • Detailed vulnerability reports: Empower your teams with comprehensive insights, streamlining the path to immediate remediation.
  • Proactive defense strategy: By understanding and debunking the myths around mainframe security, z/Assure VAP ensures a proactive approach to strengthening defenses with mainframe vulnerability scanning.

How z/Assure VAP works

Manually scanning systems isn't just time-consuming—it's impractical. Rocket Software advocates for a systematic, automated approach:

  1. Initiate a baseline scan of your enterprise.
  2. Review the Vulnerability Detail Reports (VDRs).
  3. Engage with vendors using VDRs.
  4. Implement patches from vendors.
  5. Rescan to confirm vulnerability resolution.
  6. Regularly scan before maintenance is applied into your production environment.
The Vulnerability Lifecycle

Questions IT Risk Officers can ask
to determine gaps

Q1: Is the mainframe environment a part of your IT Risk Assessment methodology?
Q2: Does your compliance and risk team provide you with ongoing mitigation reports associated with operating system risks?
Q3: Do you have the proper controls, governance, and communication to leadership on all aspects of securing your mainframe environment?
Q4: Do you have a Mainframe Vulnerability Management Program? If not, what aspects of the mainframe are included in compliance audits?
Q5: Do you have compliance solutions that utilize the commonalities in all the compliance regulations?

What do customers say about z/Assure Vulnerability Analysis Program (VAP)?

Wir hätten nie gedacht, dass es Sicherheitslücken auf unserem Mainframe geben könnte, aber als wir mit dem automatisierten Scannen begannen, stellten wir fest, dass das Ausmaß und die Schwere der Sicherheitslücken viel größer waren als erwartet.
