Jubilant Terminal Emulator- Secure and Compliant Terminal Emulation

Flynet Security Systems Explained

In an era of escalating security concerns for organizations securing your terminal emulator is of paramount importance. Many organizations are still using emulators which are both insecure and uncompliant with modern legal frameworks.

Unsupported Technology
Most thin client emulators rely on deprecated technology which is no longer updated or supported by their developers. Many emulators still use Java or Active X plugins which are no longer supported by major browsers and represent a continuing security threat.

Even when vulnerabilities are discovered, developers can be sluggish with necessary security updates.

Modern Compliance
In the modern world of global APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) hacker groups national, urban and local Governments across the world are requiring government and private organizations to adhere to stricter information security standards.

A dramatic example of the necessity of this is the repeated targeting of the freeware PuTTY terminal emulator by the North Korean Lazarus Group.

Examples of these new compliances include

  • Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA): an EU regulation aimed at strengthening the cybersecurity and resilience of financial institutions and their third-party technology providers.
  • 23 NYCRR Part 500 is a cybersecurity regulation issued by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), requiring financial institutions and related businesses to adopt stringent cybersecurity controls.
  • U.S. Federal Mandate on Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): a directive requiring government agencies and contractors to enforce multi-factor authentication as a baseline security measure.

Organizations running uncompliant terminal emulation software may find themselves liable, and individuals responsible for ensuring systems are compliant could face personal consequences.
 

The Answer

The fact is that simply using older technology and hoping for the best is not enough, from a security or compliance perspective. Organizations require a dynamic, modern, future-proofed terminal emulator to deal with modern threats.

Jubilant TE is Commonly accepted as the most secure emulator in the market.
