Optim Data Privacy for Distributed Systems is designed to provide technical users with a foundation in the functionality basics of the Optim Solution. This course provides both a conceptual understanding of data privacy as well as the Optim Solution's capabilities for de-identifying data for privacy protection and supporting compliance initiatives for critical business applications. This course serves as a foundation for the Optim Solution's business value, features, and functionality.

This course focuses on the technical aspects of the Optim Solution and is intended for technical audiences. The focus of the course is hands-on experience building relationally intact subsets of privatized data and creating Optim primary keys and Optim relationships which permit cross database extraction of data. Participants will learn the basics of how the technology works through hands-on practice and how to apply the technology to business scenarios, including installation and configuration.

This course prepares technical users with the Optim knowledge and skills necessary to participate in an Optim implementation project and confidently perform Optim tasks ongoing.

This course is designed to teach the attendee the IBM Optim Data Privacy Solution basic concepts, functionality and GUI used to implement a data privacy solution. Hands-on exercises and checkpoint questions will be used to check the attendee's progress.

The self-paced format gives you the opportunity to complete the course at your convenience, at any location, and at your own pace. The course is available 24 hours a day. Once you have accessed the course, instructor help is available via the course forum Monday through Friday; questions will be responded to within 24 hours.

HW/SW CONFIGURATION

The minimum hardware and software required to launch the course are:

• Reliable HIGH-SPEED INTERNET connection (min 200 kbps up and down)
• Windows 2000 or XP or Vista
• Computer with soundcard
• Headset or computer speakers
• Internet Explorer 5.01 or later, or Firefox 1.0 or later

Network Speed Test

http://clpext.moppssc.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=8

User: clp

Pass: ibmeduc

For example, a speed test against the server with a slow connection of 140 Kbps download and 28 Kbps upload took 14 minutes to load a 30min recording before the video began. Extrapolate from this result to estimate approximately how fast your network internet access would be

High-speed broadband internet access is the recommended configuration for this course.

Keyboard Configuration

If you use a different character keyboard, you may experience errors when entering passwords. If possible, change your language/country settings for your keyboard to USA, which allows you to enter characters as in a QWERTY keyboard.
