Common Europe, in collaboration with FAQ400 (Italy), is delighted to be holding its annual flagship event, Common Europe Congress, in the fashionable city of Milan offering extensive education, networking and relaxation opportunities. It’s also a great opportunity for exploring the city… so why not take a family mini-break as well.

Congress education areas targeted are IBM Power hardware, Application Development, Advanced RPG, Open Source tools and Languages, System Management, Db2 and SQL,  IBM Storage, IBM i services and microservices, Security and Compliance and much more.

There will be two AIX / Linux tracks, to emphasize the Power Systems character of Common Europe.
Top IBM Business Architects and industry experts have already agreed to share their knowledge on the latest announcements, customer cases as well as practical subjects.

Traditionally, many companies test their application and system changes thorouhgly before deploying them to an AIX production environment. This is a good practice.
It is also a common practice to grant root access to many system and application
administrators to the production systems. This introduces a huge risk of unauthorized
change in program code and scripts. Many times file permission are changed to
debug a problem and then left on the system in a wide open fashion granting all users
full access to critical files. AIX provides a feature called Trusted Execution (TE)
that can be used in different modes to check the integrity of files along with all
security relevant attributes of a file.
This session will show you how TE can be used to check in offline and online mode the integrity of AIX OS code but also how to add your own files into the TE compliance checking environment. The session also provides an excursion into the PowerSC integration of Trusted Execution.
