For Security Administrators only - Take a look at a quick andeasy intrusion exercise....

Are you protected from existing iSeries/400 users?

Secure/Net+ is a unique iSeries/400 product designed to enhance security in the client server arena. It provides additional security checks when remote requests are received by an iSeries/400 computer. These security checks are designed to stop authorized users from performing "unauthorized" functions on the iSeries/400. By capturing incoming requests from clients attempting to access server functions, Secure/Net+ reacts and performs a series of checks based on defined rules, creating an audit trail of all remote requests received and rejected.

WIZARD MODE... an exiting new enhancement!

Prior to now - when a company was testing Secure/Net+, all users were set at 'security level 1', which meant Secure/Net+ would accept all exit point access requests.

Now - if Secure/Net+ has been put in Wizard Mode, instead of Level 1, the Wizard will automatically create the necessary rules and allow the transaction to be accepted before switching to Security Level 3.  By automating the majority of the rule creation process, the Wizard significantly reduces the setup time for installing and testing Secure/Net+ 

Key Benefits

  • Secure/Net+ was developed to address the security issues involved in networking iSeries/400 computers and PCs. It will significantly improve remote access security.
  • Secure/Net+ operates in conjunction with iSeries/400 security. It checks each remote request for the required level of remote access authority before the request is executed by the operating system. This security check is in addition to, but independent of, normal iSeries/400 authority checking. Users can be authorized to iSeries/400 database files, while, at the same time, being prevented from copying files to or from other computers.
  • Secure/Net+ highlights
    • Utilizes the exit program facility provided by the iSeries/400 network attributes.
    • Prevents fraud and malicious damage.
    • Security database is set up and controlled by a system administrator.
    • Operates in conjunction with standard iSeries/400 security
    • Protection from unwanted and unauthorized access via network connections.
    • Protects against unwanted Client Access/400 requests
    • Recognizes Group and *PUBLIC authorities.
    • Easy to use and install.
    • IP address restrictions.
    • Provides an audit trail of all remote instructions encountered. This audit trail shows the date and time of the request, the user, the remote instruction string and whether or not Secure/Net+ rejected the request. A hard copy of this audit trail is readily available.

In a typical network environment, a standard PC connected to the iSeries/400 with MS Office and CA/400, can perform a number of functions jeopardizing iSeries/400 data.  Authorized users can perform the following unauthorized tasks:

  • Download confidential or sensitive data to a PC file. Once on the PC, it is no longer under the control of OS/400.
  • Transfer data back to the iSeries/400, replacing any data that may have been in the target file with data from the PC.
  • Use ODBC to connect PC software to the iSeries/400 database

All of the above functions are, of course, subject to iSeries/400 security, however, removing authority to a command, library, or file may prevent your users from doing their job. In addition, many applications use group profiles to provide users with read/write authority to the entire database. These applications rely on front-end menus to control application security.

SECURE/NET+ was developed to circumvent this problem and will significantly improve remote access security for the iSeries/400.
