KBlock protects unattended logged-in terminals from unauthorized access in OpenVMS environments.
- Protects unattended terminals and workstations from unauthorized access.
- Quickly clears screens of sensitive information
- Frees up systems resources
- Secures systems without adversely affecting users
- Provides piece of mind
- Enhances native OpenVMS security
- Provides and easy method of terminal locking implementation
- provides an array of locking oriented security options
KBLock enhances native OpenVMS Security for VAX and Alpha systems, by providing easily implemented protection to unattended active VMS terminals. Such functionality is not otherwise available in standard OpenVMS environments.
Benefits of Using KBLock
Protects unattended terminals and workstations from unauthorized access. Security administrators may go to great lengths to implement security on their systems only to have privileged users walk away from active terminals or workstations. In only a minute or two, a rogue insider could use such a live-privileged account to grant themselves full privileges, access sensitive data, delete crucial files, or cause other mischief on the system. KBLock enforces system security by enabling users to lock their terminals before walking away.
Quickly clears screens of sensitive information.
Users who may be working on sensitive documents can easily and quickly clear screens in the event that they need to protect information from being seen by others who happen to enter their office.
Frees up system resources.
KBLock includes robust idle process monitoring which detects a logged-in terminal free of processing activity. KBLock can be used to terminate such sessions, saving valuable company system resources.
Helps save accounting resources.
In some environments, users are charged every time they log on to a system. The costs associated with accounting for numerous access times may be high. In fact, in some cases it may be more cost efficient for users to log on once and stay connected to a system all day.
Secures systems without adversely affecting users.
KBLock is simple for end-users to learn and use. Users who in the past have resisted idle-process monitors because of their complexity, will welcome the use of a simple tool, such as KBLock, to fully secure terminal activity.
Provides peace of mind.
KBLock helps security professionals implement a proven solution which greatly diminishes system vulnerability.
KBLock is also available as part of the Security Guard Suite.
