OMAHA, Neb. (Sept. 30, 2025) – FNTS, a mainframe Leader as recognized in ISG’s 2025 Provider Lens Quadrant Reports for Mainframes – Services and Solutions, has added AMI (Automated Mainframe Intelligence) Security to our IBM z/OS Mainframe Security portfolio. AMI Security ensures organizations have the capability to automatically detect and quickly respond to threats across mainframe environments.

For many enterprises, the mainframe is the backbone of mission-critical operations, but it’s also a prime target for attackers. Zero-day threats, misconfigurations and ransomware can put sensitive mainframe data at risk. Protecting data from breaches and outages requires real-time visibility and automated tools for fast detection.

Acting as a virtual security expert, AMI Security at FNTS is a comprehensive security suite that uses out-of-the-box policies to strengthen the mainframe environment against vulnerabilities, insider threats and data theft. Actionable insights help incident responders investigate and close the window of opportunity for hackers.

AMI Security improves visibility, enables real-time alerting and integrates mainframe security events directly into enterprise-wide security operations to help organizations strengthen compliance, detect and respond to threats faster, and unify mainframe activity within their broader security ecosystem. From foundational monitoring and SIEM integration, to emerging managed response capabilities, FNTS provides flexible, scalable solutions tailored to each organization’s unique security needs.

  • Option 1: Security Monitoring & Alerting provides foundational monitoring of mainframe environments by capturing and normalizing security events into FNTS’s log management systems.
  • Option 2: SIEM Integration & Correlation extends Security Monitoring & Alerting by forwarding security logs into your enterprise SIEM for cross-platform threat correlation.

“FNTS specializes in partnering with customers in highly regulated, compliance-driven industries and operates some of the most secure, technically advanced data centers in the U.S. By combining real-time monitoring and SIEM integration, AMI Security from FNTS empowers IT teams with visibility and automated defense to review, respond, remediate and recover faster from evolving cyber threats,” said FNTS Chief Information Security Officer Don Pecha. “This software-based solution is ideal for organizations that want to have a trusted partner to help reduce risk, enhance security and strengthen compliance without having specialized mainframe expertise in-house.”
