VANGUARD Security Assessments
Today’s mainframe is another server in the data center, accessible
internally and externally like every Windows, Unix, Linux, or other
server. Not only are mainframe environments vulnerable to internal
malicious users, but also to external hacktivists, criminals and
competitors. To ensure critical assets are properly protected in RACF, ACF2 and Top Secret (External Managers),
organizations should perform regular mainframe security assessments.
Vanguard Professional Services team conduct Vanguard Security Assessments
to quickly identify and prioritize mainframe penetration risks, determine
whether the implementation reflects best practices for security and integrity,
and evaluate the potential impact and exposure of any findings on an
organization’s operations and reputation, e.g., failing audits, losing
revenue or violating privacy protections.
How Security Assessments Work
Vanguard Security Assessments target mainframe penetration risks based
on Vanguard’s industry-leading knowledge of z/OS security server,
enterprise and cloud security.
Checks include:
- 170+ mainframe security configuration controls.
- Integrity of the implementation.
- Documented security policies for provisioning and administration.
- Security-related procedures for operations, help desk and support departments.
Reports include:
- Each area where policies, procedures and systems are creating risk.
- Rankings from low to severe of detected vulnerabilities.
- Guidance on how to prevent future problems.
- Instructions for remediating security problems and meeting standards and regulations.
Highlights
- Prevent security breaches and other risks.
- Protect critical customer and corporate data and applications.
- Reduce risk by implementing security policies and procedures.
