Security Analysis
Security of your computing environment is a major issue for many companies today. PARSEC Group can provide a security analysis of your OpenVMS environment and can configure your systems to provide the security you need while still allowing the users to get their job done without interference from the system. Our consultants average over 26 years of experience with OpenVMS and can use their experience and knowlege to help you with your OpenVMS security needs.

Password Policy
PARSEC Group has developed an easy-to-implement, site-specific, password policy. This may be configured to enforce most password policies that are in place today. If this does not meet your needs, we can create a custom policy that does meet the requirements for your site.

Multi-Platform Integration
Are you working with different operating systems? Do you have OpenVMS, Windows, Linux and UNIX all in the same environment. Each system has its strengths and weaknesses and their place in your business. PARSEC Group can help you integrate these systems. Let us help you by configuring your systems to share files and printers, even use the same passwords between different systems.

Device Driver Development
PARSEC Group has developed device drivers for OpenVMS terminals, printers, optical disks, telemetry controllers and time/frequency modules. The drivers have been developed on VMS/VAX, OpenVMS/Alpha and OpenVMS/I64. Give us a call to see how we can assist you with the development of a device driver for your special needs.

License Audit
As time passes, the needs of the system changes. With this comes changes in the needs for software and applications. New applications may be added while old applications may no longer be used. An audit of the software licenses installed on your OpenVMS systems can identify unused, and under utilized licenses along with licenses that may be set to expire.

Troubleshooting/Crash Dump Analysis
Is your system behaving badly? Is your network sluggish? Are your programs dying? Let PARSEC Group help! We have some of the best internals experts in the business. Our consultants provide expert crash dump analysis for VAX, Alpha and Integrity platforms.

Conversions
PARSEC has extended its conversion capabilities by forming strategic alliances with the leading providers of software conversion techniques. We have assembled a suite of technical conversion capabilities that will accommodate most conversion projects. We are constantly evaluating new approaches to what can sometimes be a very difficult problem. Because we are neither vendor nor technology dependant, we believe we are uniquely positioned to assess a conversion project, recommend, and then implement the most appropriate solution.

Porting and Migrating Applications
PARSEC Group will assist you in porting and migrating applications from VAX to Alpha to Integrity or Windows. This is where our depth of real-world experience really comes into play on your behalf; we apply our understanding of the operating system internals to create code with integrity and reliability.

Cluster/Network Architecture and Operations Analysis
PARSEC Group analysts will evaluate your operations needs, recommend appropriate hardware and software, and provide the necessary integration services. We can also provide an objective analysis of the current state of your information systems, and recommendations for increasing your cluster, network and operational availability, stability, and scalability.
