Description

The IBM z/OS Authorized Code Scanner (zACS) is an additional paid feature available in z/OS version 2 release 4 and later, aimed at assisting clients in enhancing the security framework of their z/OS systems. This scanner effectively identifies possible vulnerabilities located within the Authorized Program Facility (APF) code libraries. It offers both basic and advanced testing options for Program Controls (PCs) and Supervisor Calls (SVCs). The tool also facilitates AC(1) parameter testing across both batch and UNIX System Services (USS) environments. With a user-friendly visual interface through z/OS Management Facility (z/OSMF), it streamlines the diagnostic process for any necessary remediation. Moreover, it operates in a non-intrusive manner by integrating with z/OS recovery processing. Specifically designed for deployment on production environments, it can automatically collect dumps to aid in problem analysis, ensuring a comprehensive approach to security management. This makes zACS a vital asset for maintaining robust security measures in complex computing environments.
