In addition to database administrators and system administrators, cloud computing introduces a new tier of privileged
users: operating personnel working for cloud providers.
IBM Security Privileged Identity Manager helps manage
and control access to critical cloud resources by the organizations employees and/or personnel who work for cloud
providers and have high-level privileged access.

Cloud workloads are often Internet-facing, significantly increasing exposure to external threats and requiring an advanced
level of protection for cloud workloads and their users. The
IBM Security Network Intrusion Prevention System provides advanced network-level protection against emerging
threats and vulnerabilities. Backed by the IBM X-Force
research and development team, IBM network protection
helps shield applications and network infrastructure from
exploitation, identifies personally identiable information (PII)
and other condential data, and prevents users from opening
up attack vectors such as instant messaging protocols and
peer-to-peer file sharing to and from cloud resources.
Although mainframes are known for robust security, organizations still need a multi-layered approach to protect the missioncritical transactions that occur on the platform and their most
crucial production data. The IBM Security zSecure suite
provides cost-effective security administration, improves service
by detecting threats and reduces risk with automated audit and
compliance reporting. The following tools, in particular, can
enhance security in mainframe cloud environments:
Unpatched systems, unnecessary services and poor configurations settings are a high risk to cloud deployments. Moreover,
virtualization introduces additional security complexities,
such as maintaining the security of offline or suspended images,
and opens the possibility of new classes of attacks targeting the
