CA ACF2 and CA Panvalet

Data centers using CA ACF2 can also install the CA ACF2 Panvalet interface, which is distributed with each release of CA ACF2. This interface completely replaces CA Panvalet security mechanisms and provides, among other features, CA Panvalet command validation.

When a CA Panvalet command is issued, the interface is invoked from CA ACF2 through the CA Panvalet security exit. The interface intercepts the CA Panvalet command before it executes and ensures that the user has the authority to issue the command by checking a privilege attribute in the user’s logonid record. If the user has the required authority, the interface permits execution of the CA Panvalet command.
