At one time or another, every system administrator and security officer faces the question “who did it?” IBM i can audit numerous events and you should be using its capabilities. However, what happens after you collect the event data? How do you convert the raw data into useful information?

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.

Join this Webinar to understand:

• How to configure IBM i to record system and user events
• What activities can (and cannot) be audited
• What mechanisms are available to extract audit data from the audit journal
• What other information does an auditor want to see
• How to step up to the next level of audit reporting with PowerTech Compliance Monitor

This event will include an online Compliance Monitor demo.

Attendees are eligible to receive a FREE Compliance Assessment.
