IT Audit
Effective FISCAM Audits of Mainframes with zOS and MVS


: FISCAM is the Federal Information System Controls Audit Methodology, the prescribed IS audit approach for Federal government agencies. Z/ OS and MVS are the system software forIBM mainframe computers. This class explains how z/ OS and MVS work, how their security controls work, how FISCAM works, and how to apply FISCAM to audit the controls of an IBM mainframe computer installation.
How to Audit MVS, RACF, ACF2, TopSecret, CICS, DB2, and MQ Series Security

: This intense class shows you how these mainframe computer software packages work, how their security works, and how to audit them.
How to Audit zOS with USS TCPIP FTP and the Internet
: This class is a logical follow-on to "HG64: How to Audit MVS, RACF, ACF2, CICS, and DB2 Security". Mainframe Data Security Officers will benefit from this class, as well as IT auditors. Now that most mainframe installations have connected at least one mainframe to the Internet, auditors and security staff need to address the effect this has on more...

This course will give you a more...
UNIX USS for RACF Administrators

: If you are a RACF administrator who doesn't administer USS security too, this course is a must. Now that IBM gives us USS (UNIX under MVS, also known as OMVS) for free with MVS, RACF administrators need to know how to administer USS security. This means learning UNIX security administration, and understanding how USS works with RACF. Securing USS is essential to securing TCP/IP on the mainframe, as well as the Websphere web server software.
