IBM i Compliance Automation Reporting Tool (CART)

General Page

IBM's Lab Services consultants have built an out of the box solution for monitoring over 1000 security attributes in your IBM i environment. This reporting and dashboarding solution makes it easy for you to identify security risks and take action to resolve out of policy items.

The Compliance Automation Reporting Tool (referred to as CART) provides load and go reports and dashboards, making it easy for you to identify security risks and take action to resolve out of policy items. Base risk and priorities on your own policy, or IBM's best practices policy. 

CART comes in two flavors: 

  • Enterprise Edition which incorporates the ability to have centralized reports and dashboards containing information across many systems or LPARs/VMs. 
  • NEW Express Edition which provides similar function at lower cost for single server implementations.

Along with Security Centric reports and dashboards, CART is also expanded to provide many systems and object metrics for the IBM i System Administrator. Often, it is the Systems Administrator responsible for both security compliance and keeping your system running! CART provides many out of the box reports/dashboards so you can monitor work management, job, journal, output queue/spooled files, PTF Groups and much more.
