update STIG Check RACF-US-000060 from assertion to a programable validation

Today spending the time to research all of the various settings called out in this STIG check is time consuming and all appear to be programmatically verifiable which would save time. Additionally we do not find the 'assertion' function all that g...

zSecure - Display new Quantum Safe Algorithms as well in help panels

We have setup the SMF signing with the alternate algorithm which is visible in the zSecure RE.K.T panel.However, the 'help' panel for the 'Algorithm' Column does only state:"This 8 character field shows the key use algorithm, such as DES, DES3,AES...

zSecure - Resource Copy panel for wide screen (62x160)

zSecure ISPF panels do scale nicely to wide screen resolutions (62x160). Unfortunately it is not working on all panels. For example the RACF general resource panel (C2RP3@@S) uses the full width of 160 columns and when copy a resource to a new pro...

Report SMF Signature with Carla SMF2(1,2)

Since we are using SMF signing in our systems I tried to report the SMF Record 2(1:2) but haven't found any indication for this in zSecure IN.D 'Data dictionary' as a built in field.

Reporting on the CSDATA Segment

We use the CSDATA segment heavily on User IDs, so that data about the user is stored on the User ID. We don't have to look up information in some other zOS dataset or some off host repository. But we need to be able to effectively report on that d...

zSecure - Show complete Installation Data in panel C2RP3@@D

Groups Installation Data is cut in panel C2RP3@@D to fixed length of 44 characters. However, the ISPF panel does allow to display much more information. Please see attached screen print. The display of this cut 'InstData' is misleading as it does ...

Add support for adding, activating or deactivating MFA factors and Tags

Currently there is no way in zSecure to add, activate, or deactivate factors for MFA. Nor is there a way to add tags. It all has to be done via RACF commands. It would be much more convenient if it could be done within zSecure

Improvements to zSecure =RA panels for searching the RACF CSDATA segment

In the four zSecure =RA submenus where it is possible to select 'additional selection criteria' on Segment Presence, add the following options on the custom data segment panel: - The ability to specify whether multiple search options should be AND...

z/OS Unix Access Report for Users or Groups

In zSecure, we can get an access report for a User or Group via the RA.3.4 panels. This report shows us what RACF resources an ID has access to, whether directly via the ID or via a connected Group (selecting option 2 in RA.3.4). Such a report cur...

Add option or make it default to use PHYSICAL_ATTR instead of ATTR RE:U:F

See IBM case tickets TS016343010 and TS016139824. If you read thru the cases, you'll see that z/Secure is not displaying the correct data when querying the USS file permission bits. We searched on GLOBAL WRITE files and directories and got very fe...
