Coffee with Carol: Step by Step Approach to Implementing Object Level Security 

More organizations are realizing the need for implementing object level security - especially for database files that contain information which must comply with various laws or regulations.  But the question many administrators have is, how do you secure files without breaking the application or other processes?  This session explains how.  Configuration options, testing steps, "gotchas" to avoid, along with real-life examples will be presented.

Implementing Security Best Practices for the IBM i 

In this session, security expert Carol Woodbury will discuss the sources of security best practices, the security best practices for IBM i and then applying those best practices to the system using SkyView's Policy Minder for IBM i.

10 Things You Don't Want to Miss in the Audit Journal 

The IBM i audit journal contains vast amounts of information but most administrators either don't know it's there or don't know how to easily get information out of the audit journal in an easy-to-read format.  In this session, security expert Carol Woodbury will discuss the top 10 pieces of information found in the audit journal that administrators can use for audit or compliance purposes as well as for debugging problems.  Carol will demonstrate how to easily unbury the treasures found in the IBM i audit journal by using the SkyView Audit Journal Reporter product.
