Stream: Virtual Room A
Time: 16:15 - 17:00
The use of network macro- and micro-segmentation to protect and segregate sensitive network traffic has become a hot topic as standards like PCI-DSS have strongly encouraged their use. But with so much virtualization and resource sharing on IBM Z and z/OS, network segmentation can seem like a daunting task. This session covers the various technologies available on z/OS to establish effective network segmentation, even when physical network interfaces are shared across z/OS logical partitions. By the end of the session, you will have a good understanding of the network segmentations tools available to you on z/OS and appropriate use cases for each.
