InterSession Session Manager
Control And Streamline The Way Users Access 3270 Applications
Single Sign-On (SSO)
InterSession provides users with Single Sign-On (SSO) access to all authorized VTAM applications—no repeated user ID or password prompts. For enhanced security, InterSession supports pass tickets in place of passwords, and can integrate with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) solutions to meet modern authentication requirements.
Improved Productivity and User Satisfaction
Enhances productivity by allowing users to easily switch between multiple mainframe sessions without the need to log in an out repeatedly. It provides a single individually configurable interface to manage and navigate multiple sessions, saving time and effort.
Simple Administration
Easy administration with on-line and batch maintenance routines. With InterSession Session Manager, administrators can easily configure and manage session settings, such as application access, screen size, fonts, and colors, for individual users or groups. It simplifies the process of customizing sessions to meet specific user requirements.
Robust and Flexible Security Features
The flexible security system integrates with RACF, CA-TopSecret, CA-ACF/2, and VSE/BSM, supporting pass tickets, pass phrases, long passwords, and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). It hides application data on idle terminals with a password-protected standby screen and automatically logs off idle users to enhance security.
IBM Parallel z/OS Sysplex Support
In a Sysplex all Intersession instances work together as one. This means InterSession automatically:
- Replicates all changes and settings between instances
- Load balances, and has backup for the user session
