MQ Series and Middleware security

[Gunnar Peterson <gunnar () arctecgroup net>]

As the saying goes, a Unix server goes down and you have a bad weekend. A Mainframe goes down and the earth stops 
rotating on its axis. To the latter point, MQ Series and other messaging systems that communicate with Mainframes and 
heritage(*) systems get next to no attention from the security community, however they are critical. Here is a chat 
with T. Rob Wyatt on that subject

* Heritage is what most people call legacy, but legacy is pejorative and heritage more accurately reflects the role of 
the systems that basically runs many businesses
