The IAO must ensure that update and allocate access to SYS1.SVCLIB is limited to system programmers only and all update and allocate access is logged and reviewed. Periodic reviews of access authorization to critical system files must be performed. Evaluate the impact of correcting the deficiency. Develop a plan of action and implement the changes for SYS1.SVCLIB. SYS1.SVCLIB contains SVCs and I/O appendages as such: they are very powerful and will be strictly controlled to avoid compromising system integrity. |
