I expect by "It's not a VTAM login, it's SuperSession," in precise terms,
what you mean is that you bypass both the TN3270 application selection
panel - also called the "solicitor screen" - *and* the USS system "borrowed"
from VTAM - the "VTAM login" - by use of the DEFAULTAPPL statement. The
named "default application" would be SuperSession.

As a University the campus still on the mainframe (all all in the past) used
HOD for student registration. Since students could be anywhere, it was open
to the world. It's not a VTAM login, it's SuperSession, so you can only get
to certain things. We have had a few DOS attacks at certain userid's but
they are either non existant or protected.
Likewise, the replacement web application (PeopleSoft) is available via the
web.
