Raz-Lee Security, a leading supplier of information security solutions for IBM Power i servers (iSeries/AS/400), has enhanced its iSecurity Visualizer with revolutionary Business Intelligence capabilities which will help companies analyze and pinpoint security and management issues based upon all security and management-related queries which can be executed from the iSecurity GUI.

For the past three years, Raz-Lee has offered its customers an advanced, Eclipse-based Business Intelligence solution called Visualizer for easily analyzing network access and QAUDJRN activity in a friendly graphic user interface environment. This solution enabled users to instantaneously find the “needle in the haystack” in order to investigate potential security breaches whether originating from the network or transpiring on the IBM i itself.

With the addition of the new capabilities, Visualizer now analyzes:

• Firewall log files

• Audit log files

• AP-Journal application data

• Output of Firewall queries

• Output of Audit queries including User Profile-related queries

• Output of queries which have been run and stored on disk (Database Reports)

Of special interest, the ability to analyze User Profile based queries via Visualizer adds an essential dimension to the challenge of defining, synchronizing and managing User Profile information, especially in multiple partition environments.

In addition, Visualizer now has “Drill To” capabilities for easily defining or changing security rules based upon specific network access or QAUDJRN events, as well as for dynamically displaying a table view of BI-filtered data, enabling export to Excel, PDF, CSV and HTML files.

Raz-Lee Security sees this functional expansion of Visualizer as a major step forward in helping customers obtain real benefit from iSecurity as well as in differentiating iSecurity from ALL competitors.

“Anyone reading the professional trade press over the past year or so has undoubtedly been impressed by the ever increasing number of articles centering on the potential benefits to companies attained by using Business Intelligence technologies,” said Eli Spitz, VP Business Development, Raz-Lee Security. “Our revolutionary Visualizer BI product responds to this trend and gives our customers the cutting edge technology they deserve.”
