IBM Tape Encryption Implementation – ss270pl
Course #:
Duration: 2.4 Hours
Learn about the IBM TS1120 and LTO4 Tape Encryption and its components. The IBM tape encryption key manager is discussed along with the benefits provided by IBM tape encryption. System managed tape encryption using z/OS and DFSMS and the AIX device driver are presented. Application managed tape encryption using IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) is also discussed.This course will also go into details on the new EKM Release 2 along with the differences of using LTO4 tape encryption for open systems.
Objectives
