Failing All Undefined STCs

To instruct CA Top Secret to fail all undefined STCs, the security administrator enters:

TSS ADDTO(STC) PROCNAME(DEFAULT)
               ACID(FAIL)

Generally, selection of this option is only advisable in environments in which a systematic and comprehensive analysis of started task security requirements has been made. Before using FAIL, ensure that all STCs are explicitly defined.

The STC facility must be in IMPL or FAIL mode for the undefined STC to fail. If the mode is WARN or DORM, the started task will start and run under an acid of *UNDEF*, which is undefined. In WARN and DORM mode undefined users are not denied access to resources.
