6 Compliance Assessment and Reporting Tool Centralized reporting of IBM i security An automated collection, analysis, and reporting tool on over 900 security related risks, information, statistics and demographics. All in one location and easy to use! Covers: - Password management - Profile administration - Special authorities - Group inheritance - Network configuration - Netserver attributes - Operational security - Security risks and more Enables compliance officer to demonstrate adherence to pre-defined or customer-defined security polices. Security reporting made easy! Daily compliance dashboard report/s at VM (partition), system or enterprise level

7 Security Diagnostics In depth security collection and reporting Reduces security administrator time involved in remediating exposures Reports on: User profiles Adopted authority programs Trigger programs Work Management Auditing configuration Network attributes Integrated File System Over 70 reports 7

8 Privileged Access Control Ensures compliance to industry guidelines on privileged users Without careful control, privileged users can pose a risk to your system security. This tool enables the security administrator to reduce privileged accounts, with a mechanism to temporarily elevate privileges to users when needed. Option to change identity for troubleshooting, IFS access and object ownership requirements Fully audited Automated notifications sent to distribution list when tool is invoked that includes a log of activities performed 8

9 Secure Administrator for SAP on IBM i Eliminates sharing of powerful SAP administrator user profiles SAP provided administrator user profiles are often shared leading to security exposures and ineffective auditing. Secure Administrator for SAP on IBM i addresses this exposure by providing a secure and auditable mechanism enabling multiple SAP administrators to utilize the same SAP administrator user profile without sharing the profile itself. Before Secure Administrator for SAP on IBM i: Benefits: SAP administrators now only need their IBM i user profile for SAP administrative tasks Provides the ability to effectively audit SAP administrator user profiles Limits access to authorized users SAP administrator user profiles no longer shared Interactive use of SAP administrator user profiles eliminated Manage multiple SAP installations (running on the same partition) from the same interactive session 9 After Secure Administrator for SAP on IBM i: Commands: CRTSUDOENV and DLTSUDOENV Create/delete the Secure Administrator environment GRTSIDSUDO and RVKSIDSUDO Grant/revoke use of administrator functions for different SAP installations LSTSIDSUDO List Secure Administrator environments and users that have access to each SAP installation SIDSUDO Execute commands under the authority and environment of the specified SAP administrative user profile

10 Access Control Monitor Monitor security deviations from application design Ad hoc or scheduled reporting to check and report on application objects that are out of corporate security policy standards, data classifications, or other security related configurations Prevents user application failures due to inconsistent access controls Monitors compliance of libraries, objects, and authorization Lists Customer extensible to allow automation of objects back into compliance 10

11 Network Interface Firewall for IBM i Exit Points Reduces threat of unauthorized network access Exit programs allow system administrators to control which activities a user account is allowed for each of the specific servers. This easy to use interface addresses the most commonly used network interfaces. Users denied by default for greater security Users allowed are added via menu Allow access through Group Profiles Restrict by IP Address Log only mode Current exit point coverage: DRDA / DDM IFS FTP ODBC/JDBC/File Transfer REXEC RMTCMD (honors LMTCPB!) SQL CLI TELNET *customization required Host Server (Multiple) Customization for additional network interfaces available 11

12 Audit Reporting Security and user auditing management and analysis Work with QAUDJRN journal entries and statistics to understand the demographics that define your security operations. Easily view system and user auditing statistics to demonstrate to management and auditors that security violations are being observed and handled. Filter journal entries by: User Profile Date/Time Manage: User object and action auditing values Library/File/IFS object auditing Auditing system values Journal receivers Scheduler to automate actions and reports Quick Audit of Users 12

13 IBM Systems Lab Services Certificate Expiration Manager (CEM) Simplifies the management of digital certificates Maintains a log of all expiration activities Sends notification via .
