The study summarizes data from 177 iSeries security assessments performed over the past 12 months.
Here are a few examples of the findings that will alert auditors and executives alike:
- 91% of systems don’t control or audit changes to data made thru PC access - a violation of COBIT standards, which should be a material weakness.
- 95% of all systems have more than 10 users with *ALLOBJ (root) authority - a threat to data integrity and an audit deficiency.
- 77% of all systems have more than 20 users with passwords the same as user name – an obvious violation of COBIT and ISO password standards.
The reputable and securable System i has been used for years by many of the Fortune 1000 to store sensitive corporate data and run applications critical to the business. These core applications, which introduce networking technologies to the platform, have imposed security risks that many auditors, administrators and executives are unaware of.
