Modern DB2 Security You Can Trust
Troy Coleman, IBM
Security is at the top of the list of concerns for CIO’s these days. DB2 for z/OS is running on the most secure platform in the industry, however, you still need to take steps to ensure you are taking advantage of the security features built into DB2. One of these features “roles and trusted contexts” has been overlooked for years, but more recently companies have been asking for help in understanding and implementing roles and trusted contexts. This presentation will explain the concepts of roles and trusted contexts and will provide some real-world use cases and steps to implement them. In addition, we will discuss some recent enhancements delivered in DB2 11 around secondary roles. |

Come learn tips and techniques that can assist you in today’s Digital World.
Objective 1: When your monitors find this, what should you do?
Objective 2: What crazy SQL can do to you?
