NewEra Software, Inc., based in Morgan Hill, California, develops and markets software solutions for the IBM Mainframe computing platform. NewEra Software is knowledgeable of Section 508 rerquirements and certifies that its products meet the requirements. NewEra Software's products, Stand Alone Environment (SAE) and IMAGE Focus, help users quickly recover from system outages and also provide a proactive method for ensuring the IPL-ability of their MVS and z/OS-based systems. One application in SAE called Fast DASD Erase allows users to erase all personally identifiable customer information at the end of Disaster Recovery (DR) tests by writing binary zeroes over all data and does this ten times faster than any other method. It issues a report showing that all data has been erased, which can be signed and given to the user's audit team. IMAGE Focus includes applications that help technical, audit and security teams to document the integrity of the system configuration, providing audit teams with change logs, complete documentation of the operating system and subsystems (JES, VTAM, TCP/IP). IMAGE Focus also alerts technical staff to all changes made to parmlib and the impact the changes will have on the system. If a change event is detected and the change may produce a weakness to the system or cause a subsequent IPL to fail, IMAGE Focus will proactively issue an alert that will allow for scrutiny by staff. |
