Yes. I wondered the same thing: who is asking, and WHY?
/etc/security is increasingly common on POSIX systems. If something "out
there" in your enterprise is getting tripped-up by it, methinks that
something needs fixing.

Isn’t the /etc provided by Serverpac just a sample which you may merge with
your ‘real’ /etc ?. If you are running in a sysplex /etc is a link to

Hi Lizette,
/etc/security has been set up as 755 by z/OS itself (in BPXMKDIR), for many

changes in 2.4 or 2.5
Even though it's int he etc directory, you probably should not delete it.
Unless you are sure you won't need IKED.
