CA Auditor for z/OS (CA Auditor) is a powerful mainframe tool architected to help you achieve and maintain compliance with the myriad regulatory requirements that govern your business and IT systems. It enables you to perform an automated technical review of the system, hardware and software environment and to identify integrity exposures in z/OS. CA Auditor is designed to help you simplify auditing activities and eliminate manual processes so that users without in-depth experience can perform an extensive operating system review.
Auditor helps organizations ensure the security, integrity, and regulatory compliance of their mainframe environments. It provides comprehensive auditing capabilities that monitor and track user activity, system changes, and data access on the mainframe. By analyzing and reporting on these activities, Auditor helps organizations detect and respond to security threats, identify compliance violations, and investigate potential breaches or unauthorized activities.
Auditor Features
Auditor offers the following features:
Comprehensive Auditing: CA Auditor provides extensive auditing capabilities to monitor and track user activities, system changes, and data access on the mainframe.
Real-time Monitoring and Alerting: It offers real-time monitoring of critical events, allowing users to receive alerts and notifications when specific security incidents or policy violations occur.
