A field resides in the data area of the ACID’s Security Record which holds information to be used by system and security level applications.
Each Security Record is broken down by segments as defined in the IBM External Security Interface (RACROUTE) Guide.
Fields and segments of the ACID Record are defined in a special Reserved Record of the Security File known as the Field Descriptor Table (FDT). Some fields and segments are pre-defined by CA Top Secret at installation; however, additional fields and segments can be added. For more details, see the Command Functions Guide.
Manipulation of the Field Descriptor Table (FDT) requires special administrative authority.
After fields and segments are defined to the FDT, the field name becomes a keyword in CA Top Secret. Values are assigned, replaced and removed using standard CA Top Secret commands. Fields in an ACID Security Record can be modified by anyone with administrative authority over the ACID.
