Mainframe Password Synchronization

CA Access Control supports password synchronization among mainframes running CA Top Secret, CA ACF2, or RACF security products (and CA Common Services CAICCI package) and Windows or UNIX computers running CA Access Control. Synchronization is accomplished using the standard CA Access Control password Policy Model method.

Any password change a mainframe user makes is propagated to all the machines in the password Policy Model hierarchy.
