Hi everyone,
One of our smaller clients, running on a Z9-BC, encryption requirements is
for encryption of data at rest, encryption of tape data
functionality but a crypto card is required to use digital certificates,
making it a very expensive option.
Well... Are looking for something good or cheap? g
On to my question then. I'm looking for advice, experiences and
recommendations of mainframe encryption software that will address

Actually, you might find that the crypto card is a less expensive option. I am told that software encryption/decryption is very costly in terms of CPU which is why IBM offered the 'specialty engine' (crypto card).
That's absolutely untrue! Crypto cards are for secure key

Hal and RS, I thought you might be interested to know that many of our
customers use the software based encryption and compression capabilities
but a crypto card is required to use digital certificates,
making it a very expensive option.
On to my question then. I'm looking for advice, experiences and
recommendations of mainframe encryption software that will address the
clients encryption requirements
without any need for crypto hardware

I can report one horror story: pay close attention to your key manangment
process. The whole process to include entry, change, and propagation to a

with that premise.

We heard via the rumor mill a last summer that EKM support is going away
and that we will have to migrate to TKLM or a competitive product in the

The spectre of this occurring quickly was raised and then dismissed by

Thus even if you have them snazzy encrypting cartridge drives it does not
lessen the need for some file encryption software. Just as some food for
thought. Say today you FTP a file from your z10 z/OS to a Windows platform.
Hey it arrives in ASCII ready to process. OK
