Security Management

Taking Control of Mainframe Security

Given the complexity of the mainframe environment, IT security managers need powerful, easy-to-use tools for more effective data security management.

Managing security in the mainframe environment is becoming an increasingly difficult task as the list of challenges grows longer every day. Even the most experienced security administrators can labor under the workload as security systems increase in size and networks grow in density.

Acquisitions and mergers complicate the issue. New government regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) mandate development and management of highly complex access policies, further compounding the difficulty of security administration. A solution that automates processes, offers powerful batch and real-time management and provides more control over individual profiles than z/OS Security Server (RACF) is the answer.

Identity & Access Management Solutions

Vanguard Administrator™ - offers the highest levels of security administration to simplify and enhance security management functions on systems running RACF^®. Administrator includes the widest range of administration, data mining and reporting tools available today. The new release adds enhanced digital certificate management, strengthened user authentication, protection of LDAP client configurations, support for PCICC private key, and expanded masking capabilities.

Vanguard Advisor™ - provides the most comprehensive event detection, analysis and reporting capabilities for the mainframe environment. Advisor accesses log data and information from RACF to guide administrators or analysts in finding and fixing potential security problems. Enhancements in the new version include expanded DB2 summary and detail reports and the ability to display full RACF commands when reporting events and violation details.

Vanguard Authenticator™ - is a scalable, modular and integrated authentication solution that enables enterprises to control access to the entire IT infrastructure from a central location. This solution makes it easier for enterprises to manage access because the number of user IDs is significantly reduced and users have a single password to remember and maintain.

Vanguard ez/Integrator™ - allows diverse platforms to interface and use the proven authentication, authorization and auditing capabilities of an IBM^® mainframe.

Vanguard ez/SignOn™ - solves registration and enrollment problems with a universal password and intrusion detection solution for multi-platform environments.

ez/SignOn is currently available for:

Windows XP/2003
OS/400
Red Hat Linux
SUSE Linux
HP-UX
Sun Solaris
AIX
Novell

Vanguard ez/Token™ - a two-factor authentication solution integrated with RACF^® for users logging on to the mainframe.

Vanguard PasswordReset™ - is an innovative self service, browser-based password resetting solution that allows authorized users to quickly and securely change their own RACF passwords anytime, from anyplace.

Vanguard SecurityCenter™ - the first Windows-based graphical user interface for IBM's RACF and DB2 security administration, offers the ideal solution for decentralized security administration. Security Center graphically presents hard-to-find security information, replaces dozens of native commands with easy point-and-click and drag-and-drop operations, and provides an easy, intuitive training environment. The new version includes support for multiple RACF database management, password phrases, hard revokes, and dynamic caching of DB2 user authorization changes.

Vanguard Tokenless Authentication™ - delivers strong authentication capabilities by generating and sending a one-time use, time-sensitive passcode to a communication device the user already possesses: the user's cell phone, PDA, Blackberry and more.
