Case Study: Data Processing Incorporated achieves enhanced IBM i data security and regulatory compliance with Fortra (Powertech)

Data Processing Incorporated Banks on the Power of Powertech

Data Processing Incorporated, a privately owned IT services company supporting two banks in Lawton, Oklahoma, needed to secure and manage large volumes of sensitive customer data across IBM i core banking servers while meeting strict regulatory and audit requirements. With more than 1,500 internal users plus external vendors and frequent third‑party access, the organization required stronger control, monitoring, and reporting to verify legitimate access and ensure compliance.

To address this, they implemented HelpSystems’ Powertech suite—Exit Point Manager, Compliance Monitor, Authority Broker, and SIEM Agent—along with onsite implementation and training. The tools deliver granular access control, elevatable and auditable authority, customizable compliance reporting for OCC and audit needs, and real‑time notifications; combined with strong vendor support and training, these measures quickly increased security, simplified audits, and improved operational efficiency with plans to extend centralized SIEM integration.
