Blockchain is positioned to revolutionize all industries, and the mainframe platform is playing an important role by providing multiple levels of security for Blockchain applications.

The IBM Blockchain on Bluemix, High Security Business Network (HSBN) is designed to deliver the security, compliance, and audit-ability that firms need in highly regulated industries where data privacy is paramount. The HSBN provides instances of highly secure blockchain networks running in the IBM cloud. Each instance of the service runs in an isolated, tamper-resistant Secure Service Container running on the mainframe (z Systems / LinuxONE) which protects the runtime and data from potential misuse where even highly permissioned system administrators are unable to access. All data is encrypted, and with cryptographic keys stored in hardware and certified to the highest security standards in the industry, clients can ensure that their data is secure.

Come learn about the High Security Business Network, the role z Systems plays in delivering the performance and security needed for production blockchain environments, as well as the latest innovations with the Hyperledger fabric supporting enterprise workloads and consortiums.

Diana Henderson is Offering Manager for the IBM z Systems platform with a technology focus on containers/appliances and an industry focus in Insurance and Energy & Utilities. Diana has held a number of business and technology roles from circuit design of SRAM and eDRAM memory architectures for high-performance processor chips to product manager for IBM z Systems mid-range servers and Parallel Sysplex technology working across global teams of technologists and strategists to deliver the next generation z Systems mainframes to market.

Diana received her M.S. and B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University. Diana’s other professional interests include entrepreneurship, venture financing, and promoting STEM professions to younger generations.
