Insurers are also struggling with high, mostly fixed costs and the complexities of maintaining legacy systems, which makes current variable cost-based alternatives more attractive. There are three recurring themes that we see most often: 1. Insurers want to shift from fixed to variable, “pay-as-you-go” operating costs.

From securing everyday personal messages and the authentication of digital signatures to protecting payment information for online shopping and even guarding top-secret government data and communications—cryptography makes digital privacy possible. In modern times, cryptography has become a critical lynchpin of cybersecurity.

Across the globe, government services are experiencing an increased demand to connect with public services. As non-essential businesses remain closed and economic downturn looms, more people are accessing social services for government help and benefits. It also needed to prepare the Government Services Agency for the future.

I regularly get questions from Db2 for z/OS people that pertain to data security. Most of the time, these questions have a pretty narrow focus - a DBA, for example, wants to know more about Db2 roles and trusted contexts, or about SECADM authority, or about "at-rest" encryption of Db2 data on disk. What does that do?
