Where’s the MQ Security?

February 15, 2012 Roger Lacroix

I was at Wendy’s (in Canada) for lunch today and the cashier put the following flyer on my tray: Of course, it made me smile because I recently wrote a blog item that MQ people still need to implement either SSL or a security exit in WMQ v7.1. Maybe, I should create some T-Shirts with […]

Why choose MQ Channel Encryption over SSL?

March 8, 2011 Roger Lacroix

MQ Channel Encryption (MQCE) is priced at $299 USD (volume discounts available) per queue manager plus 15% yearly maintenance and support fee.
