Software engineers who write code don’t always know if code is vulnerable, especially if they are new to the job or if they are using code snippets pulled from templates. 

There are many ways to accidentally create a vulnerable codebase. And it’s hard to spot. Sometimes the logic of the program does what is expected, but it’s still vulnerable.  Using the Veracode integration with BMC Compuware Topaz Workbench, organizations can discover security risks in mainframe applications early in the development lifecycle. 

The modern IDE of Topaz Workbench edits and debugs code, followed by the Veracode IDE Scan that identifies vulnerabilities in the code written. The Veracode integration allows developers to shift left and scan code for security defects early in the development lifecycle, where it is easier and less costly to fix. 

This demo shows you how to leverage the integration between BMC Compuware Topaz Workbench and Veracode.

Accelerate Application Software Development Pipelines w/ Database DevOps

Subpar development tools stunt mainframe application modernization efforts. The lack of modern tools undermines software quality and increases organizational risk.  And in an age when senior mainframe developers are retiring, this lack of modern tools hinders organizations from attracting and hiring new talent to maintain crucial IT infrastructure. 

In this Webinar, Forrester Consulting shares the results of its Total Economic Impact™ analysis of BMC Compuware ISPW and Topaz to evaluate the benefits of modern tooling that boosts developer output by 175%, increases deployment frequency by 600% and cuts onboarding times of new developer hires by 50%.

During this 1-hour Webinar, you'll learn from the experience of DevOps leaders from Humana and 5 global finance and insurance organizations:
· How to increase ROI through developer productivity gains during coding and deployment
· How you'll benefit from the savings of faster onramp times of mainframe developer new hires
· How automation with modern tools gives you the capability to deploy sooner, quicker and faster

The Total Economic Impact of BMC Compuware ISPW and Topaz

Reduce risk and improve efficiency with proactive mainframe security

In September of 2021, BMC commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct an online assessment of security and mainframe decision-makers to determine if companies have advanced in their security readiness since last year. 

In this study, they explored security events, as well as the success of current SecOps tools and practices in addressing these events. A second goal was to understand the pervasiveness of team siloes and more specifically, the relationships between security and ops teams when it comes to how well-integrated they are and where that relationship could be improved.

Join us to learn how to:
- Prioritize mainframe security to protect your business
- Improve company security through mainframe protection 
- Hone zero-trust practices
- Bridge silos between Security and Ops Teams

Protecting The Mainframe as Part of a Holistic Security Strategy

The mainframe has the same need for threat detection and response as any other platform, but the maturity of these practices often lags distributed systems. With these best practices, IDC enables SOC professionals to close this gap and protect their critical digital business infrastructure. 

Topics include:
• Integrating mainframe data with enterprise security solutions
• Detecting threats across the entire attack lifecycle
• Using threat intelligence to identify the most relevant threats

Applying the Principles of the MITRE ATTCK Matrix for Enterprise to Mainframes

Technology leaders are doubling down on the mainframe. Organizations are increasing workloads and integrating mainframes with customer-facing applications. A recent survey shows 64% see the mainframe as a platform for long-term growth and new workloads. Businesses still count on their mainframe due to higher transaction volumes, increased number of databases, and increased data volumes. But maintaining and modernizing mainframes are both costly, so technology leaders must decide on a strategy for modernization and say yes to DevOps on the mainframe. 

During this Webinar, BMC Compuware welcomes featured guest speaker Brent Ellis, Forrester senior analyst, who provides insights on how organizations are accelerating their mainframe transformation strategies for the workloads of the future. Ellis will moderate a panel of Mainframe DevOps leaders who are leveraging modern development and automation tools to transform their mainframe application development processes.

 Panelists: Gaurav Jaju, Humana, Reg Wilkinson, Lloyds Banking Group, Jakes Olivier, NedBank, Henrik Strøbech, Nets Denmark, and Anthony Anter, BMC

Say Yes to Mainframe DevOps - Leveraging DevOps to Double Down on the Mainframe

Legacy waterfall delivery processes were never intended to operate at the velocity and quality the modern world requires. For the mainframe to remain relevant, development teams need to exploit agile delivery practices, along with automation tools enabling a continuous delivery of small iterations of features/functions into production. When enterprises embrace agility, automation, and collaboration to deliver the functionality enterprises require, they are able to reduce time to market significantly without compromise on quality. 

In this session, Stuart Ashby shares how to gain a competitive advantage with an end-to-end DevOps mainframe inclusive pipeline with BMC AMI and BMC Compuware solutions.

Pipelines Are Silo Busters

Privileged Users have the keys to your mainframe kingdom. Monitoring their activity can help surface unusual activity—but without prompt action, the damage may already be done. 

In this on-webinar, you’ll learn how the latest advances in privileged user monitoring can close windows of opportunity for attackers and keep business-critical data safe from credential theft, lateral attack movement, ransomware, and other threats. Topics include: 

• Why traditional activity logs fall short of today’s security needs 
• Ensuring a real-time response to suspicious mainframe activity 
• How Zero Trust security applies to protecting your users and the mainframe

The Evolution of Privileged User Monitoring for Mainframes

The mainframe plays an integral role in digital transformation—but only if app developers can overcome the constraints posed by outdated application development tools and processes.

 In this webinar, Forrester explores new research that will help IT leaders understand how the right DevOps tools will improve their ability to modernize mainframe applications and processes, helping them move into the future and be more competitive.

Accelerate Mainframe Agility with DevOps

Backup and recovery can help you limit the impact of ransomware—at significant cost and effort—but it can’t prevent damage and disruption to your business. 

In this webinar, you’ll learn how you can get out in front of the ransomware threat to stop hackers from locking down your data in the first place. Topics include: 
• Controlling mainframe access based on least privilege 
• Preventing hackers from re-using compromised credentials 
• Detecting suspicious user behavior and dataset changes

BMC AMI Security: How to stop a potential ransomware attack before it happens

Recently commissioned Forrester TEI research reveals that when writing mainframe software, many developers devote up to 30 percent of their time to manual testing. Testing even a simple code change can take up to half a day while testing a more complex change can take two to four days. The interviewed businesses budgeted three days out of every 10-day sprint for manual testing. In addition to the high cost, this manual process is rife with risk as developers can easily neglect running a test case or even misinterpret the results. 

Join BMC and guest speaker Jeffrey Yozwiak, TEI Consultant from Forrester Consulting, as they share a framework to evaluate the efficiencies, risk reduction, and financial gains of using shift-left automated testing for mainframe applications. This webinar will describe how BMC Compuware customers modernized their mainframe software development lifecycles and realized the following benefits from testing automation: 

• Overall time savings and increased developer output saved $4.5 million 
• Bug reduction of 20% saved $376,000 
• Automation efficiencies saved $2.9 million 
• Reduced risk of major mainframe defects saved $2.6 million
