Secure Systems Security Administration

Implementing security is not a one-time matter. Though your ClearPath servers may be guarded and protected, security has to be an ongoing process. You can’t just put security measures in place, then walk away and forget about them. To protect your computing assets, security has to be maintained and monitored – all of the time. And, you have to regularly reevaluate your environment since corporate IT assets, security policies and threats change over time.

Security Administration

To have effective security, you need an effective tool for defining and examining your security configuration. Security Administration for ClearPath OS 2200 helps you manage OS 2200 security and implement your security policies. It’s also useful for periodically examining your security configuration to verify that previous choices still apply.

Two complementary tools let you maximize the productivity of your security administration.

Graphical User Interface

With the easy-to-use graphical interface, you can browse your security configuration, create reports and make individual changes. End users can take advantage of this tool to view their own user records, display lists of controlled interfaces, create access control records and attach them to the objects they own.

Your security officers and administrators can use the graphical user interface to perform administration and reporting for the entire OS 2200 security environment.

Command Line Interface

With the command line interface, you can make individual updates. And you can also define and apply a related group of changes.

User Empowerment

End users can also use the above tools to administer security for the objects they own. This empowers the owners and relieves your security administrator of the tedium of making those changes for myriad object owners.
