DescriptionWhy do secure Mainframes sometimes have "777" permissions in the Unix root? This demo-driven session explores the most frequent mistakes found in z/OS Unix environments. From misconfigured BPXPRMxx parmlib members to the over-reliance on BPX.SUPERUSER, we will analyze these vulnerabilities and provide a detailed remediation plan. Regardless of your role, you’ll walk away with a checklist to audit and harden your USS footprint immediately.
