EKC, a mid-sized software development company based in Rosemont, Illinois, concentrates on IBM mainframe security system support and administration. Its product suite extends mainframe security to support ongoing system maintenance and provides in-depth analysis of the security environment. The E-SRF product examines both potential access and actual access, giving stakeholders the information needed to manage necessary permissions while limiting unnecessary or undesirable access, with HIPAA compliance identified as a notable application. The Firecall interface enables managed elevated emergency or temporary access for predefined users during problem recovery, avoiding the creation of special user IDs or changes to security databases that might persist after the incident. Access during Firecall is logged to SMF to ensure all activity is auditable. EKC also offers a Help Desk facility that enables secure, automated forgotten-password recovery, reducing time spent by support staff on password-related issues.
