SAFECOM is the original user interface to Safeguard, the native HP NonStop™ server security program. Both were developed at a time when highly trained HP NonStop technical staff managed HP NonStop security exclusively. However, today’s security requirements are not only more complex and scrutinized, but security is often managed by an information security department whose staff rarely consists of single-platform experts. Instead they are information security specialists with responsibilities across many different computer platforms.
Why Safeguard PRO?
Safeguard PRO brings together all the capabilities of the XYGATE Safeguard enhancement modules to offer you a single source for achieving your Safeguard-related security requirements. A friendly and intuitive user interface adds to the ease of use and allows the Security Administrator, whose responsibilities can span several computer platforms, to take care of the HP NonStop platform with ease.
What Do I Get with Safeguard Pro?
The XYGATE Safeguard PRO package consists of 5 integrated modules, each addressing specific Safeguard security requirements. Every aspect of Safeguard Administration, Audit, Authorization, and Authentication (including interfacing to LDAP) is enhanced and made efficient with XYGATE Safeguard PRO.
XYPRO’s Safeguard PRO is an enhanced Safeguard manage¬ment, configuration and reporting package that extends the capabilities of Safeguard with unrivaled user authentication, password quality and object security power.

Donkey Rodeo SIG, London.
At the start of the recent BITUG (British Isles Tandem User Group) DR SIG in London, NTI’s Dave Ross asked the attendees to think about what the letters D.R. stood for, with prizes for the most creative suggestions. More on the results of that at the end.
As you’d expect from a DR SIG, the day was focused on Disaster Recovery or Data Replication as is becoming more commonly used, because of the multi-purpose uses for modern DR set-ups. The list of attendees was a little longer than usual, which I’m thinking is down to two possible reasons. The first could be that DR is a fairly hot topic and people want to keep up to speed. The second might have been NTI’s exclusive booking of a London Eye (huge Ferris wheel on the Thames) capsule for a post SIG hurrah. Either way, it was great to see a good turn-out.
By the end of the day, it was time for the D.R. Suggestions to be aired. Around ten made the final cut with Digital Renaissance being one, Demand Ransom was possibly another, but Deny Responsibility was deemed the winner! I can’t remember if the prize was a crisp £20 note or a Tandem T-Shirt, as there were a few mini competitions during the day. Either way, everyone went home happy, especially those with extra cash/clothing and those who got an invite to the post SIG London Eye trip.
The next BITUG SIG covers Migration and Solutions, 13th October.
