APPC Security › Run a Secured Transaction › Security Options

Security Options

If you specify SECURITY=SAME in the TCT, the allocation assumes the security of the request source. If you specified the user ID and password on the allocation request, it assumes the same as if you had specified SECURITY=USER. If you do not specify any user information, it assumes the same as if you had specified SECURITY=NONE.

For allocation requests, security is performed for a transaction under the following conditions:

• The NCL procedure which issued the request is running in a signed-on environment
• The USERID and PASSWORD operands were specified in the allocation request

Otherwise it will run as an unsecured transaction.

Incoming attach requests that contain security information result in a secured transaction and if no security information is present the transaction runs as unsecured.
