Assure Access Control
Enforce strict security policies to protect your systems and data with effective, automated control over every level and method of access.
Multi-Factor Authentication strengthens logon security for configured users. Certified for RSA SecurID, Assure Multi-Factor Authentication also supports RADIUS servers or a Precisely-provided authenticator.
Elevated Authority Manager automatically controls and manages granting higher levels of user authority on an as-needed and time-limited basis, while comprehensively monitoring the actions of elevated profiles. Flexible, highly customizable rules define the context in which authority can be granted and the method to be used for elevating authority.
System Access Manager enables tight, automated control of all entry points and pathways into IBM i systems, including network protocols, communications ports, database protocols, and command lines. Granular rules control access based on user profile settings, date and time, IP address and more.
Easily create, modify and view MFA rules
Assure Monitoring and Reporting

Assure Monitoring and Reporting
Assure Data Privacy
Protect sensitive and highly regulated data from unauthorized access using advanced, state-of-the-art encryption, tokenization and masking technologies.
Encryption defends data at-rest using NIST-certified AES encryption for IBM i. It fully supports FIPS 140-2 compliant key managers as well as many leading OASIS KMIP-compliant key managers.
Assure Encryption also offers built-in masking and data access auditing, using rules-based definitions to automatically control which users can view unencrypted data, which can only view masked data (first 6, last 4, etc.), and which users are not allowed to view the information at all. Its extensive tokenization capabilities help maintain strict data privacy by temporarily or permanently replacing sensitive data with token values.
Secure File Transfer shields data moving across networks from view and automates transfers. Files are encrypted for transfer using globally recognized standard protocols including Secure Shell (SSH SFTP) and Secure FTP (SSL FTPS). Optional PGP encryption further protects data both at the source and destination.
Assure Malware Defense
The ever-escalating threats to your business posed by malware, and especially ransomware, cannot be ignored. Cyber-criminals are employing every technology and tactic available to defeat your security systems and then go completely unnoticed as they do unprecedented levels of damage. Countering them likewise requires deploying every possible method and tool you have available to build a coordinated and multi-layered defense. By combining the advanced capabilities available in Assure Security solutions, you can build a robust and resilient IBM i defense against malware and integrate it with your existing SIEM solution for even more comprehensive protection.

Defend against breach from without and within
Block unauthorized entry using Multi-Factor Authentication and then maintain strong cyber-checkpoints at every juncture with System Access Manager. Add Elevated Authority Manager to stop pretenders using fake or stolen credentials from getting into restricted systems and data while also ensuring that they can’t game the system to grant themselves higher levels of security clearance access.
Maintain constant vigilance
Leverage all the detailed security and operations data which is continuously maintained in the extensive array of IBM i journals and security logs. Use Assure Monitoring and Reporting to simplify extracting and presenting IBM i journal and log data for analysis and proof of regulatory compliance while integrating it all in real time with your existing SIEM solution’s alerting and reporting capabilities.
Make your data useless… to hackers
Cyber-criminals commonly use malware to obtain your data so they can get rich by reselling it or to achieve some other goal by publicly releasing it. But if all they can extract from your systems is data that is already encrypted, they have little leverage and no saleable merchandise.
Take all the resale value out of your data by using Assu/en/assure-encryption/re Encryption to protect sensitive and highly-regulated data using advanced, state-of-the-art encryption, tokenization and masking technologies. Fully optimized for performance, Assure Encryption brings leading edge, NIST-certified AES encryption capabilities to your IBM i platform. And it fully supports FIPS 140-2 compliant key managers and many other leading OASIS KMIP-compliant key managers.
