IBM Resource Access Control Facility (RACF)
IBM RACF for z/OS enables the protection of your mainframe resources by making access control decisions through resource managers. Granting access to only authorized users keeps your data safe and secure. RACF authenticates users with a password, password phrase, digital certificate, Kerberos ticket, or a PassTicket. Protect your mainframe resources with tools that manage and control access to valuable z/OS data. RACF retains information about your users, resources, and access authorities in its database. This database determines access to protected mainframe system resources based on your security policy. RACF has logging and reporting functions that identify users who attempt to access the resource, either successfully or unsuccessfully. Detection of security exposures or threats is made possible by this feature. Through the RRSF, you have the capability to run most RACF commands on a node and a user ID different from the one you are logged on to.
