Beyond passwords, we must standardise enterprise security with Enhanced Authentication options, such as the titular IBM Z MFA. Mainframes sit at the core of global banking, healthcare, and corporate infrastructure, making them top targets for advanced cyber threats but many organisations still rely solely on traditional passwords, which is no longer enough to secure these critical environments. This session explores why implementing Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a vital step in modernizing your mainframe security posture and achieving a true Zero Trust architecture. We will examine how IBM Z MFA goes beyond simple compliance checkmarks to actively prevent credential-based attacks and secure privileged access. Whether you are a security administrator, system programmer, or IT executive, this session will give you insights about single points of failure and a goal defend your most valuable enterprise assets.
