For CISOs and security teams, mainframe modernization brings together the challenges of access control, data protection, and visibility across hybrid systems. This paper examines security priorities including Zero Trust, encryption, privileged access, secure APIs, and the use of analytics for threat detection.
Explore practical approaches to unified SMF and log management, controlled access to live data, and secure storage and retention. The paper connects these priorities to PropelZ, Lozen, and Zaac, outlining how mainframe data can support broader monitoring and governance practices while retaining established security controls.
