Auditing matters

The Challenge
No matter how well thought out your security policy is, you can't be sure that it's working until you prove that it's working - by running regular audits. However, due to the complexity of the task and the enormous quantities of data involved, auditing the RACF database, SMF log data, and security-critical system parameters can challenge even the most expert auditor. This is a dangerous situation: if security lapses are not detected, or incorrect parameters wrongly interpreted, data security and integrity will be jeopardized.
