IBM Tivoli and Consul: Facilitating Security Audit and Compliance for Heterogeneous Environments

Tags:
mainframes

Overview Security and compliance challenges are greater than ever because of increased regulatory requirements and costs of compliance failures, increased complexity in technologies and IT environments, and a lack of predictability and visibility across infrastructures. To help address these challenges, IBM continues to expand its security management portfolio through development and acquisitions. One such acquisition is Consul risk management international, B.V., a recognized leader in policy-based security audit and compliance. Designed for both distributed and mainframe environments, Consul products provide capabilities that combine with the IBM Tivoli security management portfolio to help organizations.
