IBM Tivoli Access Manager for Operating Systems - Software Subscription and Support Renewal

Tivoli Access Manager for Operating Systems erects and enforces a seamless security perimeter to UNIX/Linux systems to provide protection for business-critical systems and auditing of all users. These controls even apply to "Root" super-users, a notoriously difficult-to-secure UNIX/Linux group. Unchecked and unmonitored Root users are often the source of considerable abuse. Tivoli Access Manager for Operating Systems prevents misbehavior by Root users and all other users through the rigorous application of access controls on resources, files, and data.

Further, hackers favor Root accounts as targets because Root users typically create backdoor access routes in order to bypass basic protocols. As a result, while the majority of cyber theft results from internal abusers, the application of adequate controls on Root accounts will also prevent a significant amount of external cyber theft. Tivoli Access Manager for Operating Systems ensures 24x7 protection from unauthorized access to business-critical applications by providing bulletproof controls against malicious actions.
