Logon Security Manages Unix Access 
 
Logon Security is an independent gatekeeping and tracking product for system and file security on Unix platforms that goes well beyond what standard O/S-level access and monitoring can offer...

Summary
Robust security software for restricting and monitoring access to Unix systems. A central administrator can pool users into groups, restrict users' activities and access duration, delete 'sleeping' users, and report from encrypted audit files.
Benefits
• User access management
• Account duration control
• User-specific program starts
• Tamper-proof audit trail
• O/S-independent interface
Introduction
More than one billion systems are connected to the internet. You must keep your organization's systems -- and the assets they contain -- secure.

Better technology is now also available to control and track access to the (Unix) computer system and its files. Logon does not interfere with the standard security of Unix systems. With IRI's new Logon security package, user log-ons, rights, client terminals, and activities can be highly restricted and fully audited. With Logon, you can automatically serve up an application program for a user who successfully logs in. To stop hackers from breaking in, unsuccessful log-in attempts are recorded and repeat offenders are permanently rejected.

Idle accounts are sensed and locked out. All login and user activities are audited in encrypted reports linked to Logon's encrypted parameter files. Attempts to manipulate Logon's encrypted control files or reports are recorded and result in a lock-out.
Description
The Logon Security package administers and audits access to all Unix-based systems via an independent, cross-compatible interface that requires no changes to existing resources, or even root privilege.

Logon's administration module allows you to set up very specific access and time limits on a given user or groups of users, and allows you to pool certain users. Logon centrally stores this information for later modification by the administrator (only) -- someone who does not need root privilege. In fact, the administrator's ID can be secured by any standard system password and be saved by Logon as well. Logon produces audit trails of logon attempts and will also be able to audit specific user activities and commands.

Only the Logon administrator can access, analyze and report from the trail. Even the Unix system administrator cannot access Logon's encrypted audit trail. Attempted manipulation results in a warning and/or lock out. Access to system then gets more difficult, since no further setting changes can be made until Logon's security administrator has returned.

Platform Availability
Logon is available on all Unix and Linux-based systems.

Licensing and Support
Logon security can be licensed for temporary or perpetual use. Per-system prices range from USD $2,000 to $20,000 and depend on the number of users aboard each system. Annual maintenance for Logon, which includes phone and email support, plus upgrades, costs 16% of the base license fee for the total licensed configuration.
