z/OS Communications Server's IP Security feature provides an essential layer of server endpoint "self-protection" for mainframe systems and data. IP packet filtering controls which packets are allowed in and out of z/OS. IPsec protects data in the network by providing encryption and authentication services transparently to z/OS applications and middleware. This session describes both functions and will help you start planning for a z/OS-based IP packet filtering and IPsec solution.
