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...

It would be really useful if RACF or z/OSMF provided an optional extension of sorts where you could check if profiles, users, and so on exists in RACF as well as get general information about the security setup either through a REST API and/or a P...

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...

zSecure - add owner to default alert 1401

The current zSecure Alert 1401 reporting unix access violations provides great information on what (access) happened where (path). However, it would be great if the owner user:group can be added to the default alert.

Send alerts that were produced from events while zAlert was not active

It would be very helpful if for any reason zAlert is down for a period of time, any alert that would have been generated otherwise, to be able to be sent to a defined destination. This way, no alert recording will be lost. The batch job that is us...

Copy user by overtyping their RACF username
