Ensuring Mainframe Security in a Dynamic World

As organizations are digitally transforming, the need to provide access to mainframe applications and more importantly the data that resides on the mainframe is becoming more crucial. The COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally shifted how we work which has shifted how mainframe systems are managed and administered. Gone are the days where support teams are based in the same physical location as a mainframe datacenter.

In addition to these fundamental shifts, we are seeing an increasingly dynamic geopolitical landscape as well as increased in sophisticated cyber criminals who are looking to steal, compromise and disable systems of record through cyber attacks. These changes have led organizations to change their security postures.

It’s clear the enterprise organizations are facing a critical point in their security journeys as they look to improve mainframe security and mitigate risks. In our latest research brief, Ensuring Mainframe Security in a Dynamic World — created in partnership with Iconium Software — we explore the current security challenges that are facing organizations and potential technology solutions that can help.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
