1 Software Announcement September 27, 2005 IBM z/os, V1.1 helps to secure data stored to tape and other removable media Overview Businesses today are focused on the importance of securing customer and business data. Increasing regulatory requirements are driving the need for the security of data. is a powerful and widely used technology that helps protect data from loss and inadvertent or deliberate compromise. The IBM z/os can help address these requirements. The Facility consists of two priced optional features: the IBM feature and the IBM feature. The feature supports encrypting and decrypting certain file formats on z/os. This can allow you to transfer them to remote sites within your enterprise, transfer them to partners and vendors, and archive them. The feature enables the encryption of dump data sets. Both features are designed to support hardware-accelerated compression before encryption. Both features are intended to use state-of-the-art encryption and centralized key management capabilities provided by functions of z/os and features of IBM System z9 and zseries servers to help secure data stored to tape and other removable media. Also, a Java -based Web-downloaded program, the IBM z/os Client, is available. The separately licensed program can be used to decrypt the data encrypted by the feature running on z/os, and to encrypt data to be decrypted using the feature running on z/os. This can allow you to exchange encrypted data between z/os systems and other operating systems. Key prerequisites Refer to the Technical information section in the Supplemental information. Planned availability dates October 28, 2005: IBM feature December 2, 2005: IBM feature At a glance IBM can help you: Secure business and customer data Address regulatory requirements Protect data from loss and inadvertent or deliberate compromise Enable sharing of sensitive information across platforms with partners, vendors, and customers Enable decrypting and encrypting of data to be exchanged between z/os and non-z/os platforms IBM s world-class software support service for IBM Facility for z/os is available 24 hours a day, every day.

2 Description The z/os is designed to address the requirements of z/os customers to encrypt files for archive or for transfer purposes. z/os consists of two priced optional features: The feature supports encrypting and decrypting certain file formats on z/os. This can allow you to transfer them to remote sites within your enterprise, transfer them to partners and vendors, and archive them. This feature supports hardware-accelerated compression before encryption. The feature enables the encryption of dump data sets. This feature supports hardware-accelerated compression before encryption to tape. The z/os is supported on z/os and z/os.e releases V1.4, V1.5, V1.6, and V1.7 running on System z9 and zseries servers. Both features can use the state-of-the-art encryption and centralized key management capabilities provided by functions of z/os and features of System z9 and zseries servers to help secure data stored to tape and other removable media. feature The feature can allow you to encrypt data written to tape and other removable media. This can help you share sensitive information across platforms with partners, vendors, and customers. You can also use the feature to encrypt certain files for archival. This feature can use the z/os key management and access authentication capabilities provided within the Integrated Cryptographic Facility (ICSF) and the hardware compression and the hardware cryptographic capabilities of System z9 and zseries servers. The hardware cryptographic functions may require the configuration of one or more optional priced features on most IBM System z9 and zseries processors. The feature supports data encryption using TDES triple-length keys or 128-bit AES keys. RSA public/private keys can be specified to wrap and unwrap the AES and TDES data keys used to encrypt the file. The wrapped keys will be stored in a file header. With this technique, many files can be generated using different encryption keys, and each is expected to be able to be read even after years of archived storage. The feature also supports using a password key derivation scheme in place of RSA key wrapping. The feature supports inputs from physical sequential input files, from members of partitioned data sets (PDS) and partitioned data set extended (PDSE) data sets, and from files stored in z/os UNIX System file systems. It can optionally compress input files before encrypting them and writing the output files. Also, it can use the large block interface for output files written to tape, to help optimize performance and media space. The feature consists of two major functions, one to encrypt files, and the other to decrypt files. Both functions can leverage the centralized z/os key management and access authentication capabilities provided within the Integrated Cryptographic Facility (ICSF) and the hardware cryptographic and hardware compression capabilities of System z9 and zseries servers. Some hardware cryptographic functions require the configuration of one or more optional priced features on most IBM System z9 and zseries servers. Samples of JCL required to invoke each program will be provided. You can specify several options when using the Facility. The availability of some options depends on the hardware, hardware cryptographic features, and ICSF features installed. These options include: Description of input file Written to output file directly, bypassing encryption, to be used later, if needed, to help identify the source of encrypted data contained in the output file. type Information about the encrypting key to be generated, including 3-key TDES, clear 128-bit AES, and secure 3-key TDES. Key protection Information about the method to be used to generate and protect the data encrypting key, including RSA or password. Iteration count Specifies the number of iterations of SHA-1 hash performed in the generation of the data key and the initial chaining vector (ICV) for encryption when using a password. Compression Specifies whether or not to perform compression prior to encryption. (Note: The z/os Client will not process compressed tapes.) feature The feature can allow you to encrypt dump data sets written to tape and DASD. This feature is designed to use the z/os key management and access authentication capabilities provided within the Integrated Cryptographic Facility (ICSF) and the hardware cryptographic and compression capabilities of System z9 and zseries servers. The hardware cryptographic functions require the configuration of one or more optional priced features on most IBM System z9 and zseries processors. supports encryption of data using TDES triple-length keys or 128-bit AES keys. Like the feature, this feature supports the use of RSA public/private keys to wrap and unwrap the AES and TDES data keys used to encrypt files as well as AES and TDES key generation using a specified password. You can also specify that is to compress data before encrypting it. The feature includes two functions, one to encrypt data while processing DUMP commands, and the other to decrypt it while processing RESTORE commands. You can specify several options when using this feature. The availability of some options depends on the hardware, hardware cryptographic features, and ICSF features installed. These options include: type Information about the encrypting key to be generated, including 3-key TDES, clear 128-bit AES, and secure 3-key TDES Key protection Information about the method to be used to generate and protect the data encrypting key, including RSA or password Compression Specifies whether or not to perform compression prior to encryption DFSMShsm will exploit the encryption support provided by in the DFSMShsm full-volume dump

3 function and the associated restore functions, including both full-volume and data set-level restore. z/os Client The z/os Client, a separately licensed program (which is offered as is, with no warranty), is written in Java and can be used on multiple platforms. It is designed to enable the exchange of encrypted data between z/os systems that have the Facility installed and systems running on other platforms that provide the needed supported functions. The z/os Client is designed to: Decrypt data that was created on a z/os system using the Facility Encrypt data to be sent to a z/os system, where the file will be decrypted using the Facility Starting on October 28, 2005, you can download the z/os Client from /downloads/ Note: Data that is to be processed using the Facility Client cannot be created using compression. Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act z/os z/os, V1.1 is capable as of October 28, 2005, when used in accordance with IBM s associated documentation, of satisfying the applicable requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, provided that any assistive technology used with the product properly interoperates with it. A U.S. Section 508 Voluntary Product Accessibility (VPAT) can be requested via IBM s Web site at the following /product_accessibility/index.html Product positioning Helping to protect data from loss and inadvertent or deliberate compromise is a critical concern for businesses. To help address this issue, IBM z/os extends the scope of IBM s mainframe encryption capabilities to removable media. You can leverage the robust centralized capabilities of z/os ICSF and mainframe cryptographic hardware to generate, maintain, and store key data. In addition, z/os Security Server (RACF ), or a comparable product, can provide highly secure access management and auditability for key management tasks. Together these elements create a powerful centralized encryption solution. Statement of direction IBM plans to provide an enhancement to the IBM System z9 109 Crypto Express2 feature in 2006 that will be designed to enable remote loading of initial keys for Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs), Point of Sale terminals, and other similar devices in which the distributed keys are protected using public-key cryptographic techniques. Remote loading of these keys may help provide a more secure and cost effective alternative to local loading of keys by couriers. This enhancement is planned to support public-key based distribution of initial cryptographic keys, which is intended to be similar to that which is expected to be defined in the new ANSI X standard currently under development. In addition, the enhancement is planned to provide improved methods for exchanging Data Standard (DES) and Triple-DES keys with non-ibm cryptographic systems. The following statement of direction was published in Hardware Announcement , dated July 27, 2005: IBM TotalStorage encryption: To address customers growing concern with data security, IBM is planning for the development, enhancement, and support of encryption capabilities within storage environments such that the capability does not require the use of host server resources (so called outboard encryption capabilities). This includes the intent to offer, among other things, capabilities for products within the IBM TotalStorage portfolio to support outboard encryption and to leverage the key management functions provided by the Integrated Cryptographic Facility (ICSF). All statements regarding IBM s plans, directions, and intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice. Hardware and software support services SmoothStart /Installation IBM offers a number of remote and on-site IBM SmoothStart, Operational Support, Migration, and Installation designed to accelerate productive use of the IBM solution.
