This person had a user-id and password with privileges. Think of the harm someone with a system programmers id and privileges can do. For those of you who have been at a number of shops, how many were really careful about ids and their revocation. Most of the ones I was at were and I am not certain about the others. The problem was the security culture and I guarantee you that not all mainframe shops are really good about it. I also would almost guarantee you there are a number of Unix and Windows shops that take it very seriously. How quickly do mainframe shops apply the PTF's for integrity APARs? How quickly do the other environments apply the comparable fixes?
