RACF seamlessly integrates with existing mainframe environments by leveraging its extensive set of APIs and interfaces. They allow for other applications and software to interact with the solution for authentication, authorization, and auditing purposes. By leveraging these interfaces, you are able to integrate RACF into your existing application workflows, enabling seamless access control and security management.
I can provide a few insights into integrating RACF into existing mainframe environments and workflows: it can be done by leveraging the solution’s compatibility with IBM's z/OS operating system. RACF integrates with z/OS security services and functions as the primary security product, providing both access control and resource protection. We have configured it to work alongside other mainframe software and tools, ensuring a smooth transition and minimal disruption to existing workflows. It can also be integrated into infrastructures, like Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or Active Directory, to leverage their existing directories for authentication purposes.
Mainframe Security is a macro term that refers to a broad collection of tools and practices aimed at mitigating risks that affect mainframe systems (e.g. legacy systems, Z-series, etc.) Mainframe Security is about assuring the efficacy of a system’s security from aggressive attacks by unplanned access and unknown players.
Along with the alarming levels of viruses and malware, access to data and where that data ends up is at risk, exposing all of an organization’s human and non-human resources...
