AI-based attackers don't have the hesitation, blind spots, or learning curve human attackers do. Your mainframe's defense has to match that pace.
Continuous scanning and assessment, replacing periodic audits with real-time exposure detection
Prioritized, actionable remediation
Integrates with existing commercial or homegrown security tooling across your IT estate
Brings the mainframe in line without disrupting what already works
Positions the mainframe to lead security strategy organisation-wide, rather than lag behind it
Traditional mainframe security leans on obscurity, static controls, and periodic reviews. An approach built for a world where attackers needed years of specialized knowledge to even find their way in. That world is gone. AI-based attackers can probe for vulnerabilities at machine speed, without the institutional knowledge gaps or psychological barriers that once kept the mainframe relatively safe by default. Exposure detection and remediation now need to happen continuously, not on a quarterly or annual cycle.
MSPM isn't limited to the mainframe in isolation, it integrates with commercially available or homegrown distributed security solutions, so vulnerability management stays consistent across your whole IT estate. That means the mainframe doesn't sit in its own silo, playing catch-up to how the rest of the organisation manages risk. Instead, it can lead, feeding into the same strategic view your security teams already use everywhere else.
Ongoing exposure detection at machine speed, keeping pace with AI-based attackers that probe for weaknesses far faster than humans.
Evaluate and validate security exposures
Findings ranked by urgency, so the most critical exposures get addressed first.
Move from a list of problems to the actions that resolve them.
Feed mainframe findings into your existing commercial or homegrown security tooling.
MSPM is a continuous process to scan, assess, validate, prioritize, and remediate security exposures on the mainframe. Rather than surfacing a raw list of vulnerabilities, it prioritizes findings so your team addresses the most urgent exposures first.
Traditional mainframe security leans on obscurity, static controls, and periodic reviews. MSPM replaces that periodic cycle with continuous detection and remediation, so exposures are caught as they arise rather than at the next scheduled review.
Both. MSPM doesn't stop at detection; it prioritizes findings and supports remediation, so your team can move directly from identifying an exposure to resolving it.
