How to Audit MVS, RACF, ACF2, TopSecret, CICS, DB2, and MQ Series Security
This comprehensive class in mainframe auditing shows you how to audit the MVS operating system and some of the key software associated with it, including the RACF and ACF2 and TopSecret security software, the CICS transaction manager, the DB2 database manager, and the MQ Series middleware. These are all essential components to a z/OS system.
This class shows you how the software works, how its security works, and how to audit it. It explains the three hardware controls which form the basis of all MVS security, how MVS uses the hardware controls, and why IBM gave us backdoors to these controls. You will learn how security software such as RACF and ACF2 and TopSecret works, and how they are dependent upon effective MVS security. You will learn how CICS works, and how it relies on both MVS security and security software. The class covers DB2 and MQ Series as well, showing you how they work on the mainframe, and how their security works.
You will learn a systematic approach to auditing all this, and to making practical recommendations for improvement in security for z/OS, including MVS and its associated system software.
The 600 page workbook is a valuable reference.
