Stig RACF-ES-000200 and CICS users

Hi,

We run hundreds of CICS regions unser the same Grp , however the STIG rule ES-000200  is as follow : 

CSVLLAS_uca_permits rule:                                                                                                          

   UPDATE and higher access to a resource protected by a FACILITY class CSVLLA.dsname profile allows users

   to work with the data set data set using the LLA START and LLA MODIFY commands and must be restricted to Customer Information Control System (CICS) STCs,

   Control-O STCs, and systems programmers (SYSPAUDT).                                                                             

                                                                                                                                    

30 Non-Compliant object  GENERIC  FACILITY CSVLLA.** GTZSCI   UPDATE  CSVLLA.**                                                    

   Non-Compliant goal 8.uca_access_other UPDATE and higher access must be restricted to authorized IDs, but it is not.             

   Found non-compliant value: racf_access.ID<>                                                                                     

   Actual value: GTZSCI 

 

This means we have to declare all the userids ,which is a big amount of work.

Instead we would like to specify a RACF group.

 

See case  TS019129289  for more explanation.
