The reference to CICS as a "centralized security system" has indeed been
removed, and replaced by RACF:

<http://makeashorterlink.com/?X4DD146BB>

"In 1976 a centralized security system, Resource Access Control Facility
(RACF) was introduced on the System/370. In it's simplest form it was to
identify and verify users of the system and provide data set authorization.
RACF takes security management out of the applications and databases and
makes it an integral part of the system."
