How easy is it to extract someone's TSO password?

(OQ)

Stream: Security
Time: 15:15 - 16:00


Presentation

This is really a demo of how a someone's TSO login password, even on an encrypted TN3270 session, can be extracted using an unauthorised batch job exploiting a very common exposure we find during security assessments. The session will go on to explain how it worked, other implications of the exposure and the very simple steps in RACF to prevent it.
