    zSecure - Add CKGRACF REASON option to all 'command' panels

    We rely and use the CKGRACF REASON field for auditing purpose for all commands executed. However, not all Panels do show the option 'QUEUE CKGRACF command (allows use of Reason)' like in Panel C2RP3XCS. The panel appears when one performs updates ...

    MFA User Segment alerts

    Hello IBM, Our team thinks the addition of MFA segment related user alerts would benefit zSecure. Currently there are no alerts for adding or deleting MFA Segments on the mainframe and we believe that the addition of this alert would be beneficial...
    11 months ago in zSecure / zSecure Alert 3 Future consideration

    Allow zSecure Alert to run a REXX command when an alert is generated.

    Currently Alert will allow us to run a single "TSO/RACF" command. The list of available commands is not fully documented (There is some detail in the documentation under the CMD option on a NEWLIST). However "EXEC" is not one of the allowed comman...

    Allow ALLOC FILEDESC=nn for INPUT files

    CARLa command ALLOC FILEDESC=nn PIPE=YES is documented to support (only) TYPE=OUTPUT. We would like to use zSecure to read and process data from a a data provider in z/OS UNIX, using a pipe, so we would like to be able to use: DEFTYPE TYPE=$PIPEAL...

    ALLOC TYPE=OUTPUT option to conditionally create output data set

    The ALLOC TYPE=OUTPUT DSN=xxxx command fails when the given dsn doesn't exit. It only works when NEW is added. ALLOC TYPE=OUTPUT DSN=xxxx NEW fails (obviously) when the dsn already exists. Provide an alternative disposition, e.g., ENSURE, NEW(IFMI...

    Provide ability to specify where to find SSH configuration for STIG reporting

    I've been pointed to documentation and told that currently the STIG check RACF-SH-000010 will default to /etc/ssh for the configuration file even though we start SSH pointing to a script in a different location that specifies a different path to t...

    zSecure Audit - CIS Benchmark - CIS-OS-1.2.12 Expired Certificate - show label

    While the current control CIS-OS-1.2.12 checks for expired certificates it only lists the 'real' resource with the serial number. However, like IP addresses they do not mean a lot for an end user. Hence, I would suggest that not only the serial nu...

    zSecure - Accessing Remote files via CKNSERVE must support DSNPREF

    With the recent zSecure 3.1.0 September release availability support for Access Monitor files from Remote Systems via CKNSERVE is available. That function is well appreciated, however it only supports remote files that are fully specified. This fu...

    IP filter rule enhancement to include IKED (IPsec Policy)

    Alert 1615 only covers changes to the IP rules defined in the TCPIP Profile statement IPSEC->IPSECR<-ENDIPSEC. As we are supposed to use Policy Agent to configure IPsec rules, this alert is then kind of 'useless' as this default IPSECR state...
