Fix:
The IAO will ensure that WRITE and/or greater access to BMC CONTROL-M installation data sets are limited to System Programmers only, and all WRITE and/or greater access is logged. READ access can be given to auditors, automated operations, BMC users, operations, production control and scheduling personnel (domain level and decentralized), and BMC STCs and/or batch users. All failures and successful WRITE and/or greater accesses are logged. The installing Systems Programmer will identify and document the product data sets and categorize them according to who will have update and alter access and if required that all update and allocate access is logged. He will identify if any additional groups have update and/or alter access for specific data sets, and once documented he will work with the IAO to see that they are properly restricted to the ACP (Access Control Program) active on the system. (Note: The data sets and/or data set prefixes identified below are examples of a possible installation. The actual data sets and/or prefixes are determined when the product is actually installed on a system through the product’s installation guide and can be site specific.) Data sets to be protected will be: SYS2.IOA.*.CTMI.

If the security exit(s) has (have) been modified, ensure the security exit(s) has (have) been checked as to not violate any security integrity within the system and approval documentation is on file.

Description:
BMC CONTROL-M configuration/parameters control the security and operational characteristics of products. If these parameter values are improperly specified, security and operational controls may be weakened. This exposure may threaten the availability of the product applications, and compromise the confidentiality of customer data.Systems Programmer

Failure to properly restrict access to these data sets could result in violating the integrity of the base product which could result in compromising the operating system or sensitive data.Information Assurance OfficerSystems Programmer

Fix:
The IAO will ensure that WRITE and/or greater access to BMC CONTROL-M User data sets are limited to System Programmers and/or BMC STCs and/or batch users only. UPDATE access can be given to the BMC Users, operations, and production control and scheduling personnel (both domain level and Application level). READ access can be given to auditors. The installing Systems Programmer will identify and document the product data sets and categorize them according to who will have update and alter access and if required that all update and allocate access is logged. He will identify if any additional groups have update and/or alter access for specific data sets, and once documented he will work with the IAO to see that they are properly restricted to the ACP (Access Control Program) active on the system. (Note: The data sets and/or data set prefixes identified below are examples of a possible installation. The actual data sets and/or prefixes are determined when the product is actually installed on a system through the product’s installation guide and can be site specific.) Data sets to be protected will be: SYS3.IOA.*.CTMC. The following commands are provided as a sample for implementing data set controls: ad 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMC.**' uacc(none) owner(sys3) - audit(failures(read)) - data('ControlM Repository Dataset') pe 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMC.**' id(<syspaudt>) acc(a) pe 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMC.**' id(BMC STCs) acc(a) pe 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMC.**' id(<bmcuser> <operaudt> <pcspaudt> <dpcsaudt>) acc(u) pe 'SYS3.IOA.*.CTMC.**' id(<audtaudt>) acc(r) setr generic(dataset) refresh
