Vulnerability discussion

All users with the exception of the master security control ACID must be authorized to a facility in order to sign on to it. When a user is granted FACILITY(*ALL*) , it gives the user access to all facilities. Users should be limited to access only those facilities that are required to perform their jobs successfully.

Check content

Refer to the following reports produced by the TSS Data Collection: - TSSCMDS.RPT(@ACIDS) - TSSCMDS.RPT(@ALL) Automated Analysis Refer to the following report produced by the TSS Data Collection: - PDI(TSS0990) Ensure that no ACID(s) is (are) assigned FACILITY(*ALL*).

Fix text

The IAO will ensure that blanket access to all facilities; FACILITY(ALL), is never granted. Review all access to FACILITY(*ALL*). Evaluate the impact of correcting the deficiency. Develop a plan of action and remove access to FAC(*ALL*). Example: TSS REM(acid) FAC(ALL)

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
