Hi Larry,
Ideal protection against ransomware (or any other malware) entails:
1. Only share what you must through NetServer. Share not needed? Delete it.
2. Shares you create must be protected by proper object authority on the underlying directories
3. Do not share the root, /QIBM, /QOpenSys
4. Do not use Guest NetServer profiles
5. Reduce *ALLOBJ to the bare minimum
Everything else is reactive. Be proactive. This is risk reduction, plain and simple.

Subject: Ransomware on Power
Hello all,
I'd like to know what strategy folks are using for ransomware on Power. I think IBM has a product available if you are using IBM storage. Any other alternatives people are using?
Thanks, Larry
