Raz-Lee Security, a leading supplier of information security solutions for the IBM i, has announced full support for IPv6 in iSecurity products:

  • Firewall - Network Security
  • Audit - QAUDJRN and security status monitoring
  • AP-Journal - DB audit and Application security

 

With this announcement, Raz-Lee once again exhibits unique, first-to-market technological, and development capabilities.

 

Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) was developed because the Internet is running out of IPv4 addresses; the last block of IPv4 addresses was allocated in 2011. IPv6 is the replacement for IPv4; it addresses the depletion of IP addresses, changes the way traffic is managed, and is becoming the industry standard. Google statistics show a 100% increase in IPv6 traffic since the beginning of 2013.

IPv6, IPv4, and IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses (e.g. ::ffff:192.0.2.128) are all supported simultaneously for input, checks and output. The implementation of IPv6 in iSecurity is in the same manner as in the IBM i Operating System - while IPv4 addresses are handled with subnet masks, IPv6 addresses are handled with a separate prefix length field.

 

With IPv6 implemented in iSecurity, the company's users will be able to:

  • Use any IPv6/IPv4 address to filter activity at real time
  • Provide rules to protect access to and from the IBM i from any worldwide/local IPv6/IPv4 address
  • Obtain exact IP address of someone who accessed, read or changed application data
  • Display all IPs with their standard editing

 

"Throughout Raz-Lee Security's 30-year history, we have always striven to lead the market in technological initiatives relevant to real, day-to-day, business issues," said Shmuel Zailer, CEO/CTO, Raz-Lee Security. "With the increasing prevalence of IPv6 in enterprises worldwide, and as a result of requests from some very large customers, we decided to accept the challenge and provide IBM i sites with the leading security, auditing and compliance solutions which all support IPv6."

Raz-Lee Security, with headquarters in Nanuet, New York, is a leading security solution provider for IBM's Power i (AS/400) computers. Drawing upon its 26 years of expertise in the Power i performance and optimization market, the company designs, develops, and markets a comprehensive suite of advanced security software solutions—iSecurity.

Raz-Lee's iSecurity product suite is field-proven and features three product sets: the Prevention pack, a complete security solution covering network access, user/password management, anti-virus protection, detection of harmful events, protection of workstations and more; the Compliance pack, which comprises auditing and compliance solutions, providing automatic reporting security related information; and the Application Security suite, which provides information on all changes in business-critical data using real-time alerts and timeline reports.

  • SB HelpSystems ROBOT GenericCan you trust all of your users all of the time? A typical end user receives 16 malicious emails each month, but only 17 percent of these phishing campaigns are reported to IT. Once an attack is underway, most organizations won’t discover the breach until six months later. A staggering amount of damage can occur in that time. Despite these risks, 93 percent of organizations are leaving their IBM i systems vulnerable to cybercrime. In this on-demand webinar, IBM i security experts Robin Tatam and Sandi Moore will reveal:
