HP OpenVMS Systems

Over the past two years we in OpenVMS engineering have developed a strong partnership with PointSecure, Inc, a leading provider of security solutions for OpenVMS customers. We appreciate PointSecure's enthusiasm and support of OpenVMS and of you, our valued OpenVMS customers.

We believe that PointSecure provides extremely valuable solutions for our OpenVMS customers. We are so convinced that these solutions provide an environment that can maintain optimum security at all times that:

• We offer PointSecure solutions directly and will soon make them available through our resellers as well.
• PointSecure solutions also play a key role in our Security Services offering for OpenVMS.

Ask your HP Services specialist for a free demonstration of how this tool can perform a quick check of your environment, or visit our website at http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/security.html#pointsecure to download a free security snapshot.

For those customers who need a more proactive way to secure an OpenVMS host, HP Services Specialists can install, configure and train customers to use PointSecure's host based System Detective tool. This solution gives OpenVMS users a comprehensive and flexible way to increase the level of security on their OpenVMS system. Some features of this tool restrict user access to sensitive images and files regardless of privilege settings and monitor the keystrokes of events.

PointSecure has participated in events such as InfoSec, HP IT Forums, and HP's Enterprise Technical Symposium. PointSecure played a key role in helping to make the OpenVMS system virtually unhackable at the 2002 hacker's convention, DEFCON 9.

Now, more than ever, security has to be an integral part of any computing environment. Together with PointSecure, our OpenVMS customers receive the best of both worlds – a sophisticated secure operating system enhanced by solutions that simplify and tailor the security administration of your environment.

Sincerely,
