What Raz-Lee does

Raz-Lee Security is a privately-held cybersecurity and compliance software company founded in 1983 and headquartered in Nanuet, New York, with operational roots in Israel. The company is exclusively focused on the IBM i (formerly AS/400, iSeries) server platform, where it sells the iSecurity Suite — a portfolio of over 20 native products organized into modules covering Cyber Protection (Anti-Ransomware, Antivirus, Antivirus for AIX, Orchestrator), Auditing & Response (Audit, Capture, Change Tracker, Compliance Manager, Action, System Control), Authentication & Authorization (Multi-Factor Authentication, Password Reset, Authority On Demand), Encryption (Field Encryption, Open PGP Encryption), Network Protection (Firewall, Command, Safe Update), Evaluation & Reporting (Assessment, Authority Inspector, Compliance Evaluator, GUI, SIEM & DAM Support, Visualizer), and Database Solutions (AP-Journal, DB-Gate, FileScope). All products are built natively within the IBM i operating system, eliminating dependencies on external bridges or Windows-based scanners.

The company's core customers are regulated enterprises running mission-critical workloads — financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, retail — on IBM i servers that require protection against insider threats, ransomware, unauthorized access, and regulatory non-compliance. Raz-Lee maintains dedicated compliance tooling for PCI-DSS, SOX, HIPAA, GDPR, DORA, and NIS2, and integrates its products with major enterprise security stacks including SIEM platforms (IBM QRadar, Tivoli, RSA, ArcSight) and identity providers (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, DUO, PingID). Revenue is generated through subscription-based licensing with license-file enforcement that requires updates on version changes, supported by a global certified partner network (referral, reseller, distributor, OEM) and direct enterprise field sales. The company operates in North America, Europe, and Latin America following its 2025 LATAM expansion, and continues to ship frequent product updates with major releases in 2024-2026 including Web-MFA, AIX antivirus, and an April 2026 next-generation suite release.

Direct peers

• Fortra (HelpSystems / PowerTech): Fortra's PowerTech division is the long-standing direct competitor to Raz-Lee in IBM i (AS/400) security — exit-point controls, audit, MFA, and compliance tooling. Closest one-to-one rival in product, customer segment, and channel.
• Kisco Systems: Kisco Systems provides IBM i security, compliance, and monitoring tools targeting the same AS/400 customer base as Raz-Lee with overlapping coverage in audit, file integrity, and authority management.
• Software Engineering of America (SEA): SEA is a long-time IBM i software vendor with security and compliance products (e.g., iEventMonitor) that compete directly with Raz-Lee's audit and monitoring modules in the same enterprise IBM i installed base.

Broad incumbents

• Precisely: Precisely (formerly Syncsort) sells data integrity, replication, and governance tools with significant IBM i footprint. Broader portfolio but overlapping buyers and adjacent data-security use cases.
• NetIQ (OpenText): NetIQ provides identity, access, and security management with established IBM i support. Larger incumbent with broader cross-platform capabilities but overlapping MFA and compliance positioning.
• Imperva: Imperva is a database security and activity monitoring incumbent. Overlaps with Raz-Lee's AP-Journal (database activity monitoring) and DB-Gate capabilities, though focused on non-IBM i databases at scale.
• Fortinet: Fortinet's broad network security platform competes conceptually with Raz-Lee's iSecurity Firewall and network protection modules, though Fortinet lacks IBM i-native integration.
• Trend Micro: Trend Micro is a broad cybersecurity vendor with antivirus and ransomware protection that competes with Raz-Lee's Antivirus and Anti-Ransomware products in adjacent enterprise segments.
• Rapid7: Rapid7 offers SIEM, vulnerability management, and detection-and-response capabilities that overlap with Raz-Lee's SIEM integration, audit, and compliance monitoring — though broader in scope.

Emerging players

• ARCAD Software: ARCAD Software provides DevOps, change management, and security tooling specifically for IBM i — a smaller, more specialized player that competes with Raz-Lee's Change Tracker and Safe Update modules.
