ACF2 SECURITY attribute allows insert, change, delete of any ACF2
database record. It also changes an access violation to an allow and
log (assuming requester does not have authority from some other source).
It is pretty powerful.......
You would not be able to turn off ACF2 checking other than putting ACF2
into quiet mode. Similar to SETR NOPROTECTALL and you delete the
profiles. Turning off ACF2 would require updating some system control
blocks. But since you now have the ability to link into APF authorized
libraries (or APF auth your own) that is also available as an option.

Isn't it even a bigger problem? The only purpose of having the authority is to
issue the commands that require the authority. What prevents such an
authorized user from issuing commands that make other users privileged? Or
create a new user account with privileges that is not so restricted to this
application? Or changing the access controls on APF libraries? Or even
turning the security system off?

We want the users to have the SECURITY privilege while they are using an
ISPF application and ONLY while they are using this app.
How do you prevent the user from using split screen to invoke
another application while your app is active?
