Please feel free to contact us to discuss additional details of what is necessary to properly protect System REXX and BCPii. This is why SF-Sherlock focuses intensively on both of these areas. Compared to assembler programming or disassembling machine code, REXX programming is pretty trivial! User-friendly and easy-to-use superpower features are an invitation to attackers. As a consequence, highly critical operations became minimally complex, and you have to “pay” the price for setting up gap-free security measures. Now that there is great awareness of “APF,” the question will be if the entire mainframe security mission has now been accomplished? Or what’s the next superpower, following “APF,” that mainframe users need to focus on?īased on our worldwide penetration testing experience, we have determined that “System REXX” and “BCPii” are two further members of the superpower league both are good candidates for becoming the next “big focus.” In recent years, both z/OS features have been improved so that they are now “easy-to-use” functions.

Correspondingly, relentless monitoring and compliance reporting has become standard for the “APF” risk, resulting in real-time security alerts by a SIEM if corresponding rules are bypassed. On our customer visits, we have seen companies where a new APF library requires not only an official change request, but up to “5 signatures.” Otherwise, you lose your job. Any such action requires prior permission, not just some documentation after it has happened.
#SPLUNK HEADQUARTERS UPDATE#
Today, it has almost reached the highest level of awareness: only a very few members of a company’s mainframe team are allowed to define a new APF library or update existing ones. Lead-Splunk Engineer (Remote/Flexible US locations)Hilton Headquarters McLean, VA, Remote Job. The attention that “APF” received as a security risk has continued to increase over time. Then there was a phase where APF-related auditing received more and more attention, and correspondingly became an important audit issue.

In most cases, there was no APF library protection at all. NicholsBooth Architects has designed the new offices of data software company Splunk, located in San Francisco, California. If you look back along the evolutionary steps of mainframe security, APF libraries play a leading role – due to their “superpower.” Until the 1980s, “almost anyone” working on a mainframe was able and allowed to define one themselves.
