Avatier, a leading provider of identity management solutions, proudly announces its integration of the IBM z/OS Security Server (Resource Access Control Facility) (RACF) with the Avatier Identity Management platform. This integration marks a significant advancement in enterprise security and user management, offering a suite of benefits designed to streamline operations and enhance security protocols.

Cutting-Edge Security & Management Innovations Tailored to Support IBM Environments:

The integration of IBM z/OS Security Server (RACF) with Avatier’s platform brings a new level of sophistication to identity management within IBM environments. IBM z/OS is an operating system (OS) for IBM Z mainframes. RACF, a proven security server for mainframe systems, now seamlessly integrates with Avatier’s cutting-edge identity management solutions, providing organizations with robust, scalable, and user-friendly security management tools.

Avatier’s Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) With an enhanced user experience, users can now reset and manage their passwords through a user-friendly self-service portal, reducing the burden on IT helpdesks and ensuring that users regain access quickly and securely.

Automated password policies and multi-factor authentication ensure that password resets adhere to the highest security standards.

Avatier’s Self-Service User & Group Management This feature not only offers the ability to securely automate and streamline user and group management processes within IBM environments but also integrates seamlessly with HR systems. This integration enables organizations to synchronize employee data effortlessly, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in user provisioning and de-provisioning.

Administrators can streamline operations, easily managing user and group profiles, including provisioning and de-provisioning, from a single interface. This reduces administrative overhead and minimizes the risk of errors.

Integration also allows for automated workflows that ensure new users are granted appropriate access quickly and existing users’ access rights are adjusted in real-time as roles change.

Access Governance Ensures compliance with regulatory requirements through Avatier’s access governance solutions. Organizations can maintain regulatory compliance within IBM environments with auditing, reporting, and policy enforcement capabilities.

Comprehensive Profile Management for IBM Applications:

• Centralized Control: Administrators can manage profiles across all IBM applications from within the Avatier platform, ensuring consistent security policies and simplifying compliance with regulatory requirements.
• Enhanced Visibility: The integration provides enhanced visibility into user access and activities across the entire IBM ecosystem, enabling better monitoring and auditing.

Nelson Cicchitto, CEO of Avatier Corporation, explains, “The integration of IBM Z Security Server (RACF) with Avatier’s platform is a game-changer for organizations relying on IBM mainframe systems. It not only strengthens security but also dramatically improves the efficiency and effectiveness of identity management processes.”
