esmGUI by Sarnia

Adelaide, South Australia, October 25, 2024 Sarnia Enterprise Security introduces esmGUI, an innovative security administration tool that streamlines mainframe security management across ACF2, RACF, and Top Secret environments – simultaneously. 

Officially debuting at the GSE UK Conference in November, esmGUI provides administrators with advanced functionality, visibility and control over multiple Enterprise Security Managers (ESMs) at once.

“This intuitive web-based interface revolutionises how you manage security,” says Keith Bougourd of Sarnia Enterprise Security. “Simplifying ESM administration, it helps teams to work faster, reduce errors, and improve efficiency. Misconfigurations and security gaps become a thing of the past, and new team members can get up to speed quickly thanks to the tool’s user-friendly design.”

Sarnia officially launches esmGUI during the GSE UK Conference 2024 (Whittlebury Park, UK) at 13:15 on Tuesday November 5 during a Lunch & Learn session.

Developed by security professionals with 40+ years’ experience, esmGUI empowers mainframe security teams to bolster day-to-day user management and cyber security, enhancing long-term cyber resilience. With access to all ESM databases, security managers can respond to customer requests and threats faster: enabling new users, revising access, or disabling malicious actors with a few clicks.

Administrators can handle an unlimited number of security databases across all ESMs through a single modern web interface, making it easier to apply consistent changes across multiple environments, thereby reducing the risk of human error and security lapses.

Industry Adoption

esmGUI by Sarnia has been selected by BMC as a strategic partner through their Market Zone Direct program. esmGUI is also being deployed in partnership with Vertali, a leading provider of global mainframe skills and support.

With advanced features not found in traditional ESM admin tools, esmGUI offers:

  • A consistent report format across all ESM platforms.
  • Dynamic report filtering, sorting and exporting of data.
  • On-demand selective comparison of data between reports.
  • Bulk editing and real-time changes for enhanced accuracy.
  • Command generation with selective execution.
  • Flexible report viewing for optimized data analysis.
  • Complete auditability of all actions for comprehensive reporting.

Keith Bougourd of Sarnia says that esmGUI isn’t designed to compete with other solutions like zSecure but to complement them: “It’s an ideal add-on, bringing new levels of flexibility and functionality such as drag-and-drop, unlimited comparisons, and a modern web GUI, in one easy-to-use tool.” Attendees at the GSE UK Conference can explore esmGUI first-hand, ask questions, and arrange follow-up trials during the Lunch & Learn session.
