The z/OS Generational Knowledge Gap with Rosalind Radcliffe

Risk & the Future of Mainframe Modernization with Paul Robichaux

We close out an incredible first season of conversations exploring innovation, leadership, and the future of the Z community. In Part 2 of our conversation with Paul Robichaux, we take a deeper look at the growing risks surrounding AI, DevOps, and modernization in enterprise IT environments. As organizations accelerate software development with AI-assisted coding tools like Claude and Codex, the speed of innovation is increasing dramatically. But so are concerns around security, compliance, operational stability, and data exposure.

AI, Compliance, and Zero Trust with Paul Robichaux

Security and compliance are converging—and AI is at the center of it. Paul Robichaux, CEO of NewEra Software and longtime mainframe expert, joins us once again to explore how AI is transforming IBM z/OS environments by turning audit “fire drills” into continuous, automated compliance. From real-time validation to always-ready audit proof, the conversation uncovers how organizations can stay secure, resilient, and audit-ready every day—not just on June 30th.
