Your Mainframe is Exposed. Eliminate Password Risks Now.

Senhas antigas foram criadas para proteger. Agora, elas representam uma vulnerabilidade de segurança.

Weak, eight-character passwords leave your most critical systems open to credential theft, insider fraud, and compliance fines. Every failed reset, shared login, or stolen credential is another open door for attackers.

Rocket^® Secure Host Access helps eliminate the need for passwords when accessing host applications—without disrupting operations.

Passwords Were Meant to Protect. Now, They’re the Weak Link.

Green screen passwords are often short, static, and easy to exploit. Worse, they sit outside modern enterprise identity and access management (IAM) security frameworks, leaving mainframes and other host systems vulnerable.

The Risks of Mainframe Passwords:

Weak authentication – Static passwords aren’t strong enough to protect critical host applications and data.
Risky user behavior – Shared credentials and poor password hygiene invite breaches.
Regulatory failure – Non-compliance with PCI-DSS, DORA, and Zero Trust architecture standards.

It’s time to eliminate these risks—permanently.
