    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...

    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...
