Go beyond passwords for strong user authentication
IBM Multi-Factor Authentication for z/OS prevents hacking, strengthens user controls, and eases administration with tight RACF integration.
Strengthen mainframe security with multiple layers
The value of data has skyrocketed—and with it, threats to data security. Because a mainframe environment has thousands of users simultaneously executing a wide range of applications with varying performance profiles, it requires a multi-layered approach, including user identification and authentication, access control and other advanced security measures.
Secure mainframes can help you protect your enterprise, detect threats, comply with policy and regulations, and reduce costs.
