  • Looking For Some Insight On IBM i Security

    February 17, 2021 Timothy Prickett Morgan

    There is no question that one of the biggest challenges for IT infrastructure and the applications that frolic atop it is making it the whole shebang secure. And with companies needing to provide more access to systems with users being remote and new ways of allowing customers to directly place orders, rather than through normal distribution channels thanks to the acceleration of trends caused by the coronavirus pandemic, making sure IBM i systems are secure has never been more necessary.

    Oh, and did we mention that the Internet is a hostile environment, if not an outright war zone?

    People need to know where they stand in relation to good security practices in an absolute sense and also where they stand with respect to the IBM i market at large when it comes to security – and ideally, how they are doing compared to their competitors in their respective industries.

    We want to get a better sense of how the IBM i community is handling security here in 2021, especially under the arduous conditions of a global pandemic. And that is why we are asking you to take a few moments – for the good of the entire IBM i community – to take Precisely’s 2021 IBM i Compliance and Security Survey, which you can do at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/STKG5SZ

    Myself and co-editor at IT Jungle, Alex Woodie, as well as well-known IBM i security experts Carol Woodbury and John Vanderwall, who last year formed DXR Security, kicked in some ideas for the 2021 survey that Precisely put together, and as is the case with a number of other surveys done in the market, such information is used to help IBM i shops understand themselves and to drive initiatives to help make their platforms – and therefore their companies – more secure.

    We appreciate the time you take to do this. Thank you.

    Chordia Consulting announces its first annual 2021 IT Management Effectiveness Survey

    Chordia Consulting’s 2021 IT Management Effectiveness Survey can help clients identify top problem hotspots and priorities for improvement.  There is no charge for survey participation, and clients will receive a personalized, easy-to-understand survey feedback report (a $500 value) right away, together with a full, comparative analysis report when the survey is completed.

    The survey takes only a few minutes to complete using the secure Alchemer survey tool, and is based on RAITH™, Chordia’s proprietary on-line IT healthcheck service and the underlying, proven IT/CBM™ management model.  The focus is on real-world client IT management issues, particularly in the context of today’s IT environment and priorities.  Should clients wish to extend the value of their survey feedback report by conducting a more detailed and complete Chordia RAITH™ IT healthcheck, RAITH is available at a discounted rate for survey participants through June 30 of this year.

    In addition to being offered to IT clients of all sizes, across all industries, and on a worldwide basis, the Chordia survey may also be used by other IT service providers and consulting firms as a means of better understanding the evolving needs of their clients.   Chordia is offering such partners the opportunity to become ‘sponsors’ and invite their own clients to take the survey as a group.  These collective client responses will be bundled into a service provider-specific subset of the full analysis report, offering more focused insight into each sponsor’s existing client population.  Again, this sponsor-specific service is offered at no-charge.

    Whether you’re an IT or business leader looking to learn more about how to improve your IT capabilities in 2021 or an IT professional service provider seeking to understand how better to serve their client base, take a look at Chordia Consulting’s no-charge IT Management Effectiveness Survey – it may be a perfect first step to rebuilding in 2021.

    Take the Survey Now!
