File integrity monitoring (FIM) has long been a practice on Linux and Windows, but mainframes were left out until now. MainTegrity FIM+ complements existing mainframe tools to enhance cybersecurity, simplify recovery, and improve compliance.
FIM+ detects unwanted changes made by attackers to system software, applications, parameters, JCL, and other components. It creates a baseline by hashing datasets at a trusted level and storing those keys securely in the FIM vault. Approved changes update the whitelist, while unauthorized changes trigger alerts to response teams.
Beyond detection, FIM+ provides continuous monitoring, advanced forensics, integration with immutable backups, automated recovery, and compliance support for standards such as PCI, NIST, and GDPR. This ensures ransomware and malware are caught early, integrity is preserved, and audits become easier.
