Specifically, the administrator is able to
integrate mainframe authorization with Windows Single Sign-On — the existing Identity Access Management (IAM).
upgrade to TLS 1.2 — without disrupting the business processes.
reinforce security — without jeopardizing usability.
The user
is able to log on as usual, access a secure mainframe session, and begin working.
is not able to alter settings that were locked down.
In production, a similar approach can be used to secure and manage thousands of workstations.
