To provide the opportunity to validate security data while at the same time not impacting those using standard security. The default processing provided for this exit handles 2 possible conditions:

For buffers containing Enhanced Security data the Client-Userid, Client-Password and Security Token fields can or cannot contain data. The default processing is for the exit to return Security-Not-Used, thus indicating that no validation processing was attempted.
