Mainframe in the Spotlight: Regulatory Pressures and Real-World Attacks

With new regulations requiring mainframe testing, the question isn’t if you should assess these systems—it’s how you plan to protect them. Mainframes are no longer invisible. They’re targets. There is an increased scrutiny on mainframe cyber hygiene – market pressures are emerging for mainframe penetration testing, especially at the application level. Compliance and regulations are calling out mainframe in a way that we haven’t seen before, and this is bringing mainframe testing to mainstream conversations on a global scale.  

Are your application and infrastructure testing practices ready for this renewed focus on mainframe security?

In this session, NetSPI Mainframe Practice Director Phil Young is joined by BMC Worldwide Mainframe Security Director Ken Chism to discuss: 

• The growing regulatory pressures on critical systems 
• Demo exactly what a threat actor could do to a mainframe 
• Their stories of real-world attacks they’ve both seen in the industry  
• Their top questions to ask yourself about the state of your mainframe security posture 

Watch this session now to enhance your mainframe security knowledge and take the next steps to secure your critical systems.
