Evaluation Survey
Even well-designed IBM i applications can harbor hidden vulnerabilities. This session, built for developers working in ILE languages such as RPG, C, CL, and related languages, dives into the security nuances often overlooked during development. Through real-world examples drawn from sample applications, we’ll identify and correct issues involving object authority, adopted authority, and library list exposure. You will learn how these weaknesses arise, why they matter, and how to apply practical coding techniques to eliminate them. By the end of this session, you will have a clear roadmap to writing more secure IBM i software that is ready to withstand the threats in the wild.

Learning Objectives:

1. Understand the basics of IBM i object based security 2. Learn the basics of creating more secure software on IBM i
