Lieberman Software Offers Secure Enterprise Password Vault for User Passwords and Administrator Passwords
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) August 13, 2007 -- As the amount of applications and systems that users require access to escalates, so does the number of unique passwords that users must manage. This proliferation increases the likelihood of users forgetting their passwords and being locked out of systems, or mismanaging them and jeopardizing security. To alleviate this situation, Lieberman Software's (http://www.liebsoft.com)Random Password Manager? now allows users to store all of their passwords in an AES encrypted database and recover them when necessary.
In addition to securely storing user password information, the Password Vault (http://www.liebsoft.com/index.cfm/products?id=894)can also archive passwords for IT components that administrators need to manage, such as hardware firewalls or network devices. Account information is entered into Random Password Manager's encrypted database through a secure, audited web interface. Delegated users who forget their credentials, and cannot access a system or application, can quickly retrieve their own passwords through the web interface, without interacting with the Help Desk or IT staff.
"To deal with the volume of passwords that must be managed, many organizations resort to such tactics as writing passwords on sticky notes or automatically logging users in to systems, which are both flawed security practices," said Chris Stoneff, Product Manager at Lieberman Software. "Other times administrators attempt to implement Single Sign-On solutions, but discover that these methods consume system resources and slow down network performance. Random Password Manager's new ability to centrally store all user passwords in an encrypted vault, and allow them to be retrieved on demand, is a significant security enhancement for organizations managing large, cross-platform environments."
Enterprise Security Management
The new Password Vault feature in Random Password Manager (http://www.liebsoft.com/index.cfm/products?id=270)supplements the product's existing enterprise security management capabilities. Random Password Manager regularly randomizes the common account credentials that most organizations deploy on every system in the network. The danger of using common credentials is that if the local administrator password can be deciphered on just one system, an unauthorized user can gain peer-level access throughout the enterprise.
According to Gartner, "Shared accounts with superuser privileges, or other high-level access rights and service accounts for application-to-application or application-to-database communication, can pose significant risks to all organizations. Using specialized password management tools can minimize these risks." *
By automatically generating unique, complex administrator passwords for each system in the enterprise, Random Password Manager eliminates the threat of one compromised password providing unrestricted access throughout the network. Randomization is automatically conducted from a single console for all managed systems according to schedules established by the administrator. All actions performed by the product are logged and audited - providing a record of systems managed and passwords changed - helping organizations demonstrate compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, PCI, and other government security mandates.
Specifications
Random Password Manager is a multi-threaded application that does not require agents to be installed on clients. The product is certified for Microsoft Windows Vista, and also supports Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows NT, Linux, and UNIX. It runs on Windows Server 2003 and utilizes Microsoft SQL Server 2005 as its backend database. The web interface supports all standard web browsers on all platforms as well most mobile devices, such as Microsoft Pocket PC and other PDAs. Security is ensured through SSL encryption of data to the browser, AES-256 bit encryption of data in the database, and full auditing of all transactions.
Licensing and Availability
Random Password Manager is licensed by node and available now. A free evaluation version of the product is available at www.liebsoft.com/index.cfm/products?id=270. The evaluation allows for the randomization of up to 10 systems for 30 days, with free installation and operating support provided by Lieberman Software.

Motion Sensor Home Security Cameras
Many security cameras do not record well in the dark. This implies that a slinky presence can get away with any deed as long as the dark provides a shield. This is where a security camera with motion sensor comes in. The motion sensor triggers an automatic response as soon as it picks up a movement in its vicinity. Some of these cameras come equipped with floodlights that power up as soon as a motion is registered, flooding the area with light and catching the culprit in the act. This is further enhanced by the fact that a security camera with motion sensor often offers a connection to a TV or computer monitor. As soon as the sensor is triggered, images of the perimeter can be captured immediately.
