The Security Definitions window displays all items defined to the external security system that affect the operation of CA Tape Encryption. These definitions include data set selection profiles, command protection profiles, utility protection profiles, key protection profiles, and default control profiles. Profiles that will apply to all CA Tape Encryption address spaces are prefixed with “BES.”, and specific profiles that apply to an individual CA Tape Encryption address space begin with “BES” followed by the number of the address space, such as “BES1”.
