Need to protect your legacy system? Ask IBM i MFA experts

The business world now averages more than 10 security breaches per day. That means, ready or not, you’re in a race to fix vulnerabilities before hackers can find them.

Facing legacy system challenges? The answer is MFA

One of the most at-risk areas is your IBM® i (AS/400) where your core business logic lives. 

The answer is MFA. But not from a typical IBM i MFA vendor. Passwords are passé. Cybercriminals can easily exploit them and gain access to critical users, data, and apps. In fact, 40% of Malware breaches involve password dumps. MFA provides much stronger defense against potential breaches. Unfortunately, many MFA vendors don’t understand legacy systems and usually fail to support them. Result: a weak link that can leave your IBM i dangerously exposed to attack.

 

Here, you face a unique set of challenges:

  • False sense of cybersecurity.  It’s sometimes said that legacy systems are so old, they’re secure. In fact, they have multiple blind spots, and cybercriminals know it. 
  • Perception that over-the-top password protection is sufficient. Even if there’s agreement that IBM i need to be secured, there is this misconception that MFA password protection through a single sign-on solution properly protects the systems. 
  • Modern environmental hazards. Modernizing your legacy apps improves your customers’ digital experience. 
  • Compliance conundrum. Failure to meet data regulations can lead to costly penalties—but traditional enterprise security tools don’t support IBM i
  • Vanishing IBM i wizards. Your resident experts on IBM i are retiring. Will the knowledge you need to secure your system leave with them?
