User Profile Management Software for IBM i Centralized, automated administration of user profiles

Simplify User Profile Management

Giving users the rights they need (and limiting access they don’t need) is a critical piece of maintaining IBM i security. Reduce the tedium involved in creating and updating user profiles with an automated, easy-to-use solution.

Onboard New Users with Ease

When you have new employees or existing employees changing roles in your organization, you can create new user profiles with the exact settings they’ll need based on that employee’s department and title—no need to start from scratch.

Maintain Consistency

Ensure employees in the same roles receive identical authorities, system permissions, and partition access required to do their job. Templates provide consistency in user profile settings across the board.

Key Features

Centralized management

Change profile settings and update profile templates on multiple systems without actually having to sign on to each system. Powertech Identity Manager for IBM i’s central administration menu allows you to create or change user profiles across systems.

Role-based security

Assign users to a role that automatically grants them the appropriate access rights, then group users based on department, position, or another relevant category. By giving you the ability to manage and update user profiles as a unit, rather than individually, Powertech Identity Manager for IBM i makes user administration simpler, more secure, and less prone to error.

User profile templates and auditing
