Webinar: Security Solutions for the Mainframe

Abstract

Migrate FTP to SFTP without batch JCL changes

FTP is a readily available, convenient, and inexpensive technology to transfer files and data sets between z/OS and a virtually unlimited number of other operating system platforms. This short presentation will cover the Pros and Cons of regular FTP and briefly discuss the many options available to customers to migrate off unsecured FTP. Topics include:

• Why is FTP so Vulnerable?
• Options available to secure FTP
• Live Demo of a solution that makes it easy to migrate to SFTP without making any JCL changes
