Protect your mainframe resources with tools that manage and control access to valuable z/OS data. RACF retains information about your users, resources, and access authorities in its database. This database determines access to protected mainframe system resources based on your security policy.

Detection of security exposures or threats is made possible by this feature. Through the RRSF, you have the capability to run most RACF commands on a node and a user ID different from the one you are logged on to.
