Description
CA 1 Tape Management can run with sensitive system privileges, and potentially can circumvent system controls. Failure to properly control access to product resources could result in the compromise of the operating system environment, and compromise the confidentiality of customer data. Many utilities assign resource controls that can be granted to systems programmers only in greater than read authority. Resources are also granted to certain non systems personnel with read only authority. CA 1 online applications offer the capabilities to directly access the CA 1 Tape Management Catalog (TMC) for query and update purposes. CA 1 special tape handling privileges offer the ability to process special tape requirements, such as BLP and foreign tapes. Uncontrolled access to these CA 1 features and facilities may threaten the integrity and availability of the CA 1 tape management system, and compromise the confidentiality of customer data.

Who does this work

17 NICE work roles and 9 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Refer to the following report produced by the ACF2 Data Collection and Data Set and Resource Data Collection: - SENSITVE.RPT(CATAPE) - ACF2CMDS.RPT(RESOURCE) - Alternate report Refer to the following report produced by the z/OS Data Collection: - CA1RPT(TMSSECAB) - CA1RPT(TMSTMVT) - for r11.5 and below - CA1RPT(TMOOPTxx) - for r12.0 and above - CA1RPT(TMOSECxx) - for r12.6 and above Automated Analysis requiring additional analysis Refer to the following report produced by the Data Set and Resource Data Collection: - PDI(ZCA10021) Ensure that all CA 1 function and password resources are properly protected according to the requirements specified in the CA 1 Function and Password Resources table in the z/OS STIG Addendum. If the following guidance is true, this is not a finding. ___ The ACF2 resources and/or generic equivalent as designated in the above table are defined with a default access of NONE. ___ The ACF2 resource access authorizations restrict access to the appropriate personnel as designated in the above table. ___ The ACF2 resource logging is specified as designated in the above table. Note: CA 1 password resources may require additional analysis to ensure access authorization is justified. CA 1 system password is obtained at offset x'18' from the beginning of module TMSTMVT for r11.5 and below and SHUTDWN option specified in the TMOOPTxx for r12.0 and above. CA 1 Online User Passwords can be obtained from TMSSECAB for all releases or TMOSECxx, if present, for r12.6 and above.

Fix Text (F-25923r868091_fix)

Ensure that the CA 1 function and password resource access is in accordance with those outlined in CA 1 Function and Password Resources table in the zOS STIG Addendum. Use CA 1 Function and Password Resources and CA 1 Function and Password Resources for ACF2 tables in the zOS STIG Addendum. These tables list the resources, access requirements, and the resource type for CA 1 Function and Password Resources; ensure the following guidelines are followed: The ACF2 resources and/or generic equivalent as designated in the above table are defined with a default access of NONE. The ACF2 resource access authorizations restrict access to the appropriate personnel as designated in the above table. The ACF2 resource logging is specified as designated in the above table. The following commands are provided as a sample for implementing resource controls: $KEY(BLPRES) TYPE(CAT) UID(tapeaudt) SERVICE(READ,UPDATE) LOG UID(syspaudt) SERVICE(READ,UPDATE) LOG
