    IDZ Sofware Analyzer - Client Batch Mode - Link with z/OS Copybooks

    UKO: /ukebase/server.xml improvments

    It would be easier to have the same timestamp in each log (joblog, syslog, messages.log, trace.log). Currently our zOS logs are in local time and the GUI logs are in UTC. Please add a variable to server.xml in /ukobase to set a timezone Another go...

    Dual Control for key management actions (n/Auth)

    A method for dual control is needed in EKMF Web, such that any action (request), for which dual control is required, requires two (or more) users to confirm the request before EKMF Web performs the action. These actions can be (but not limited to)...

    Key lifecycle management for old key versions

    This idea is related to EKM-I-70 After a key is rotated, there should be options to manage the lifecycle of the old keys. One option could be to set the old version of the key to inactive, so it can not be used for new encryption anymore

    GUI usability improvements for UKO

    We need to provide the UKO authorisation roles to a group of users with little knowledge of key management. They need a tool that is easy and intuitive to use. So the GUI needs to be clearer. I think it would be very useful if users of the UKO GUI...

    Store outputs of the software analyzer in individual files

    At the moment the output of all runs is stored in a single file. In the future, we would like the run of every programm anaylized stored in an individual file (XML, JUnit, ...).

    Consistent date format for display of dates in tables and filter criteria

    The display of dates should be consistent across the UKO UI. - The dates displayed in UKO when listing keys and key templates are shown in ISO format YYYY/MM/DD. - The filter criteria for dates for keys and key templates are display in US format M...

    Provide AT-TLS Support for EKMF Web

    A recent pen test by IBM XForce performed on our z/OS systems identified a vulnerability where the TCP port used by EKMF was not using https. In attempting to remediate this condition it was discovered that secure https browser access to EKMF-Web ...

    UKO: Additional column/view in "Managed keys" panel in UKO GUI

    We think it would be very helpful to be able to see the actual key status in the connected keystores, e.g. CKDS, in the UKO GUI. We realised that this could be different and would help us to manage the keys better without logging into zOS and ICSF...
