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...

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 ...

Count down to expiration or generation date/time added to token window

Our out-of-band tokens expire after 4 hours and customers continue to lock themselves out of the system attempting to use expired tokens, not realizing they have expired. Suggesting either having a date/time pasted to the same webpage that the tok...

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

Improve the message CKR1403

We are in the middle of rolling out zSecure 3.1 (from 2.5) and zOS 3.1. Some of our production jobs running Carla are starting to get RC04 on this message: CKR10403. Its unclear that this message is pointing out an issue to be resolved or just inf...

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...
