SESSION

Just when you thought you were getting a grasp on cyber resiliency, all of a sudden operational resiliency is a must for regulations all over the globe, like DORA (EU’s Digital Operational Resiliency Act). How does it all tie together, and what do you need to focus on? Join Rebecca Levesque, 21CS's resiliency SME and IBM Champion, as she shares her extensive insight into resiliency for mainframe workloads. Learn why you need to act now, some of the steps you need to take, and the capabilities that will help you meet the demands.

Cyber Resiliency is a relatively new use case of operational resilience. It has some unique requirements compared to your disaster recovery plans and your high availability requirements. It may share some of the same technologies but the requirements for isolating the data and having immutable copies presents some unique challenges. Do you have the time for a full system recovery or can you require selective applications or even data sets? If you have to do a catastrophic recovery, do you know which data sets were open at the time of the copy? How can you selectively recover those data sets? This session will discuss these challenges and how to overcome them using IBM Z Batch Resiliency.
