Protect Mainframe Security Credentials from Being Overridden

  • Article

To prevent an attacker from gaining control over security credentials used to access a mainframe host, you should do the following:

  • Use host-initiated Single Sign-On (SSO) in conjunction with valid host UID and PWD passed in the initial connection flows.

  • Set the ClientContext to not allow security credentials to be overridden when using the SelectionHint property.
