IBM i Security Assessment and Remediation

Program Overview

IBM i security searches convert because they often come from an audit, cyber insurance questionnaire, customer security review, or internal risk discovery. The buyer may not be ready to name a product yet, but they know the current security posture needs evidence and cleanup.

This directory record bridges the gap between broad security education and specific tools such as MFA, authority management, firewall controls, SYSLOG forwarding, and SIEM integration.

Best Fit

Best fit for teams that need to assess IBM i security posture, prioritize remediation, and decide which security tools or managed services belong in the first phase.

What this program helps with

• Security posture review across users, authorities, exit points, and audit settings
• Remediation roadmap for privileged access, object authority, and monitoring gaps
• Evidence planning for audit, cyber insurance, or customer questionnaires
• Shortlist path into MFA, SIEM, firewall, and authority-management tooling

What to vet before shortlist

• Start with current authority, profile, and audit evidence rather than a product demo
• Prioritize highest-risk access paths before broad policy cleanup
• Define who owns remediation after findings are delivered
