| 2:15 PM | Brian Hugenbruch - IBM - Every System z Cloud Has an Iron Lining
Cloud computing has emerged as a game-changing model for accelerating deployments of infrastructure, platforms, and software as elastic services. However, the IT industry as a whole is wary of Cloud's security implications. If we can't see it, is it really secure? What do security and standards compliance even mean in a cloud environment? And what does this mean for the traditional workloads running under System z? This presentation will clear away some of the fog that surrounds the concept of security in the cloud by examining the cloud service model in greater detail. We will discuss security concerns and threats to cloud deployments, and then trace the technical wiring that underpins a System z Private Cloud to explain how security can and does flourish in a z/VM-hosted IaaS environment.
