GB: Securing Enterprise Extender

Abstract:

Enterprise Extender, fuelled by the demise of the 3745, is the technology of choice for preserving SNA application investment while eliminating the need for a dedicated SNA backbone. The use of Enterprise Extender to carry SNA traffic across an IP network or even the Internet for SNI replacement raises some security issues. This session discusses the security considerations associated with Enterprise Extender and examines the various technologies available to address these concerns.

Tony Amies is a product architect with William Data Systems. He has been working with SNA and TCP/IP on mainframes for over 25 years. After working in Network Software Development with IBM, he moved onto specialise in SNA and TCP/IP management and monitoring solutions and has been responsible for the concept, design and development of several leading mainframe networking products marketed throughout the world over the last two decades. He has presented at both SHARE and NSTC.
