About iSecurity Anti-Ransomware
Advanced Ransomware Threat Protection for IFS. Anti-Ransomware iSecurity Anti-Ransomware protects against ransomware attacks and other kinds of malware that may access and change IBM i data on the IFS. It prevents ransomware from damaging valuable data while preserving performance. Today’s IBM i is no longer an isolated system. It is connected to other databases through networked systems and connectivity. Businesses are encouraged to open up their IBM i servers and to use APIs, microservices, and modern user interfaces to leverage the data and business processes they contain. The data stored on the IFS is like any other file that the mapped PC can access. Ransomware attacks any file it can access including connected devices, mapped network drivers, shared local networks, and cloud storage services that are mapped to the infected computer. Ransomware doesn’t discriminate. It encrypts every data file that it has access to, including the IFS files.
