Hi, I've taken an armature interest in computer security. I just flipped through the book, "Information Warfare," by Winn Schwartau. The book doesn't appear to focus on mainframes per se but the material I've read so far could apply to IBM machines.
The more the mainframe becomes a web server the more the books I've picked up apply to the mainframe. I always think of : 1. Storage Key protection. 2. Segment protection. 3. Low address protection. 4. Page protection. 5. RACF and other offerings. 6. Page 0 and Key 0 7. Supervisor vs. problem state. The books I'm reading now about security are real eye openers when it comes to security.
