Securing The Crown Jewels When Intruders Break Into The Glass House
Maxava knows how important proactive cybersecurity is. We are proud to announce Maxava Security for IBM i environments. This new solution will change how IBM i data is protected. Maxava Security moves away from the usual reactive measures found in many IBM i security solutions. It presents a new way of handling issues. This approach emphasizes better visibility and faster recovery. It is different from the old incident-response model.
The IBM i server has long been a workhorse in the business world. Known for its reliability and stability, it quietly runs important applications. It also stores critical data for many organizations. Yet, no system is entirely invulnerable, and IBM i servers face evolving threats in today’s digital landscape.
Gone are the days of simple network intrusions. Modern threats encompass everything from malware and ransomware to insider attacks and data breaches. These dangers pose significant risks to businesses, potentially leading to lost data, operational disruptions, financial losses, and reputational damage.
By using detailed access control and automated archiving, the new IBM i Security acts like a silent guardian. It constantly watches over and keeps safe point-in-time copies of your most important data. This empowers organizations to confidently navigate the evolving threat landscape, fostering a more secure and resilient IT environment.
Maxava’s IBM i Security lets trusted staff set and enforce rules. These rules decide which users and processes can change specific files on the IBM i server. By providing granular access control, organizations can ensure that only trusted users and processes can modify critical data, mitigating the risk of unauthorized alterations. Exceptions found by the access control rules trigger an alert. They also lead to the secure duplication of objects. These objects are stored in an archive, encrypted, and can be compressed if needed. This archive repository is flexible. It can be located anywhere, from a local server to a co-location facility or even the cloud. This proactive strategy is an important safety measure. It helps quickly retrieve files if they are corrupted, attacked by malware, or hit by ransomware.
Should the need arise to recover archived objects, Maxava Security offers the agility to recover vital information enabling organizations to quickly bounce back from unforeseen incidents without compromising the integrity of their data.
Maxava Security works well with current IBM i security solutions. It adds an important layer of protection. This helps in the ongoing fight against outside attacks and internal threats. It also keeps critical data safe.
Ready to secure your IBM i server’s crown jewels? Maxava’s IBM i Security is here to help. It combines access control, automated archiving, and recovery. This makes it easy to secure important data from both accidental and intentional damage.
The solution is important for keeping business operations running smoothly. It reduces downtime and protects data. This helps prevent financial losses and damage to the company's reputation. It also helps to protect the value of the organization's information assets.
