Description
CA 1 Tape Management default system password is common with all CA 1 systems. With this password, CA 1 tape processing can be deactivated. This could allow for unauthorized access to information stored on tape volumes and the CA 1 Tape Management Catalog (TMC). The result may threaten the integrity and availability of the CA 1 Tape Management System, and compromise the confidentiality of customer data.
