Description
The CICS SIT is used to define system operation and configuration parameters of a CICS system. Several of these parameters control the security within a CICS region. Failure to code the appropriate values could result in unexpected operations and degraded security. This exposure may result in unauthorized access impacting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the CICS region, applications, and customer data.

Who does this work

10 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.

Check Text (C-224310r959010_chk)

a) Refer to the following report produced by the z/OS Data Collection: - EXAM.RPT(CICSPROC) Refer to the CICS Systems Programmer Worksheets filled out from previous vulnerability ZCIC0010. b) Ensure every CICS region on the system has the ACF2PARM DD statement in the CICS startup JCL. c) If the item in (b) is true for each CICS region, there is NO FINDING. d) If the item in (b) is untrue for a CICS region, this is a FINDING.

Fix Text (F-25975r520251_fix)

The IAO will ensure that each CICS region procedure has the ACF2/CICS parameter dataset specified. Ensure every CICS region on the system has the ACF2PARM DD statement in the CICS startup JCL. View the started task proc for each CICS region in SYS3.PROCLIB using ISPF.
