SkyView Goes GUI with i OS Security Tool

www.itjungle.com

There's an old adage that says a picture is worth a thousand words. SkyView Partners is betting that a picture--namely, a graphical user interface (GUI)--is worth much, much more than that to the IT managers tasked with maintaining regulatory compliance in System i servers. To that end, SkyView yesterday started shipping Policy Minder 1.4, which includes a new Web-based GUI that should make it much easier to get one or more i OS servers into compliance, and to keep them there.

SkyView Partners launched Policy Minder three years ago to help System i shops automate the process of monitoring compliance with security policies. The product doesn't create security policies--that's the job of the systems administrators or security officers. But once a security policy has been implemented that makes a server compliant with a given regulation--SOX, PCI, HIPAA, SB1386, etc--administrators can use Policy Minder to make sure the server stays compliant as the organization adds or modifies users, groups, libraries, data, and objects over time.
