This document is a guide that outlines the integration of Precisely Assure Security and Illumio to enhance the security of IBM i systems. It describes the challenges posed by the evolving cyber threat landscape, emphasizing the importance of microsegmentation to prevent lateral movement of threats once they gain access. The guide details how the integration provides visibility and policy enforcement, enabling organizations to contain breaches effectively. Key features include support for the System Access Manager module, the ability to enforce allow/deny policies directly on IBM i, and automation of segmentation across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. The document also discusses the benefits of enhanced transparency, stronger lateral security, fortified access control, centralized policy management, and faster threat containment. By implementing these strategies, organizations can apply Zero Trust principles to their IBM i systems, ensuring critical data remains protected and business continuity is maintained.
