Firewall protects and secures all types of access, to and from the
System i, within or outside the organization, under all types of
communication protocols. This robust, cost-effective security
solution is by far the most intuitive and easy-to-use security
software product on the market today. As part of iSecurity’s
intrusion prevention system, Firewall manages user profile status,
secures entry via pre-defined entry points, and profiles activity by
time. Its “top-down” functional design and intuitive logic creates
a work environment that even System i novices can master in
minutes. Firewall features a user-friendly, Java-based GUI in
addition to the traditional green-screen interface.
Technological advances of recent years forced IBM to open up the System
i to the rest of the world. This new access to System i data brought with
it many of the security risks inherent in distributed environments. System
administrators need to equip themselves with a new generation of
security tools to combat these evolving threats..
Firewall enhances the native System i by controlling access via all known
external sources and controlling precisely what users are permitted to do
once access is granted. |
