More and more companies are relying on Web-based applications to provide online services to their employees, to support e-commerce sales and to leverage portals, discussion boards and blogs that help staff better communicate with customers, partners and suppliers. However, as the number and complexity of Web applications have grown, so have the associated security risks. This paper discusses the security challenges created by Web applications and suggests some steps you can take to address them. Complimentary with registration.
As businesses grow increasingly dependent upon Web applications, they grow more difficult to secure. Firewalls, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), and network and host security cannot prevent attacks are on applications themselves - and that is where most attacks are targeted. This paper explains what you can do to help protect your organization, and it discusses an approach for improving your organization's Web application security. Complimentary with registration.

MailFrontier, Sophos, Symantec, and Trend Micro deploy effective spam combatants. Spam is such a significant problem these days that even the federal government has gotten involved, passing legislation such as the CAN-SPAM Act. Meanwhile, a wide variety of companies has collaborated on an authentication scheme called the Sender ID Framework, aimed at making e-mail fraud even harder to perpetrate. Realistically, though, neither CAN-SPAM nor e-mail-sender authentication is likely to do much to stem the flood of mail. Fortunately, anti-spam products continue to evolve and improve.

Over the past four decades, the reliability, security, and performance of the mainframe, or System z platform and its associated subsystems, has led it to become the backbone for much of the world's corporate data.
Where distributed systems were once viewed as potentially more cost effective and easier to manage than the mainframe, the demand for processing has increased the associated costs in this environment. Rising electrical costs and increasing personnel requirements for large distributed infrastructures have increased its total cost of ownership while the TCO of the System z platform continues to decrease.
