Description

IBM Sterling Secure Proxy serves as a protective barrier for your reliable network by obstructing direct connections between external partners and internal servers. It enhances the security of your network and data transfers at the network perimeter, facilitating secure business-to-business transactions and managed file transfer (MFT) file sharing. Operating as a demilitarized zone (DMZ)-based proxy, Secure Proxy incorporates multifactor authentication, SSL session terminations, the closure of inbound firewall vulnerabilities, protocol inspection, and additional controls to safeguard your trusted environment. Moreover, it offers best practices for firewall navigation aimed at strengthening perimeter security, ultimately providing greater protection for your data and trusted zone. The solution mandates multifactor authentication prior to accessing backend systems, ensuring tighter control and validation of connections. Additionally, it features proxy support and functionality designed to bolster the security of file exchanges at the network edge. With advanced routing capabilities, it streamlines infrastructure modifications, thereby saving time and minimizing the risks associated with system migrations. Overall, IBM Sterling Secure Proxy delivers a comprehensive approach to network security, reinforcing the integrity of your business operations.

Description

The most recent update to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard mandates the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) for any administrative access to the cardholder data environment (CDE), even when accessed from a trusted network. Additionally, implementing MFA helps streamline adherence to privacy regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR. With Powertech Multi-Factor Authentication, organizations can deploy MFA throughout their systems, including on platforms like IBM i. The solution also features comprehensive auditing and reporting tools that facilitate easy compliance verification. Relying solely on passwords is insufficient in the face of contemporary security threats. Many attackers are skilled in acquiring login credentials, and approximately half of all users tend to reuse passwords. Given the increase in remote work and network access, the question arises: which organization can afford such a significant level of vulnerability? By introducing Powertech Multi-Factor Authentication, organizations can enhance their existing security measures, significantly mitigating the potential impact of compromised passwords while fostering a more secure digital environment. This added layer of protection is essential as cyber risks continue to evolve.
