IBM i Viruses: Fact or Fiction
View this informative webinar to learn about the risks associated with viruses and why the reputation IBM i holds for being "virus-proof" is not entirely accurate. We'll discuss the challenges posed by today's virus threats and follow up with a brief demonstration of Bytware's native StandGuard Anti-Virus solution.

Reduce the Cost & Effort of IBM i Auditing
Auditors and internal policy controls often require the review of numerous security details and configuration metrics. Not only is this time-consuming—especially when multiplied across many systems—it's a resource-intensive process. Often, we do it only when we have to, instead of as part of an ongoing security plan. View this Webinar to understand how to reduce the cost and effort behind this process.

An Auditor's View: Assessing IBM i Security Vulnerabilities
For the past eight years, PowerTech has compiled audit data trends from over 1,500 servers into the annual "State of IBM i Security" study. Each year, the study identifies many of the same vulnerabilities, suggesting that shops are still not where they need to be in terms of security and auditing. Join us for this Webinar where you'll learn how to get started auditing IBM i security.
