In "Hack the legacy," a European IT worker purported to demonstrate how to bypass the operating system's security and take control of the machine." - "You'd be fooling yourself if you believed that the IBM i platform was [never discussed among hackers](http://www.itjungle.com/breaking/bn071204-story01.html). But rarely has the proof been so stark as what came out of DEF CON 23 last month..."

Source: [http://www.ibmsystemsmag.com/ibmi/tipstechniques/miscellaneous/stress-load-testing/](http://www.ibmsystemsmag.com/ibmi/tipstechniques/miscellaneous/stress-load-testing/) **Big or Little, Analytics is All About the Data** *by Doug Mack* - "IBM clearly recognizes that analytics is one of its key initiatives. Being able to analyze that data in a timely fashion provides amazing business insight." - "If you’re jumping through hoops to deliver information today, why not take the time to do it right—with the end benefits being that you can automate data transformations, optimize the environment for reporting, while getting IT out of the report writing business all the while leveraging your existing infrastructure."
