But have they asked you about the powerful and dangerous AMASPZAP yet? They aren't Real Auditors until they confront you about that. > Does anyone know of a product that does this?

Malicious software - what is that? Virus? Worm? Trojan? No, I am not aware of any such thing. Could you please give an example of what you are talking about? Ah - you suggest general protection against not yet identified threats? In your wide experience of auditing other companies, what product(s) to do this have you found most commonly in use on z/OS? What is the performance impact of these products? Could you direct me to some vendor-independent studies of their price/performance? Etc, etc. Tony H. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
