About the White Paper:
Security is, without doubt, the paramount concern when considering the provision of data center access across non-private networks ? in particular the Internet. This attention to security is understandable and very appropriate. With at least 60% of vital corporate data resident on mainframes and AS/400s, data centers are the bastions of commercially sensitive assets critical for the sustenance of global enterprise. Unauthorized access to data center resources can thus result in serious financial misappropriations, loss of valuable customer records, the compromise of confidential corporate data and a general forfeiture of a competitive advantage. With so much at stake, implementing a remote access scheme that can compromise data center security can be highly hazardous to an enterprise. |
