Module CTDSE24

The CTDSE24 module is the security module of Control‑D Exit CTDX024. This module is called when a request is made by Control‑D/Page On Demand to access the Control‑D Active User Report file or the Control‑V Migrated User Report file.

This module checks that

• the user’s authorization is according to the mainframe logon user ID specified in the Control‑D/WebAccess Server Communication Setup menu.
• under the MASKRUL function, the end user is authorized during the Save/Delete/Off/Apply operations for the Mask Ruler, and during the View and Print operations for the corresponding report via Control‑D/WebAccess Server.
• if the end user does not have security permissions, the Mask ruler will be applied. (If the end user does have security permissions, then the user has the option of deciding whether the Mask ruler is applied or not.)
• in the case of Mask rulers only, if the entity does not exist, the security permissions will not be applied even if the Tolerance parameter is set to YES.

This module builds a filtered list of reports displayed on the user’s screen, and verifies the user’s authority to perform actions from Control‑D/Page On Demand.

IOA verifies authorization for every action that is performed on a specific report. The CLASS checked is FACILITY (unless otherwise specified) and the entity used to check authorization depends on if Basic or Extended Definition mode is used.

NOTE: When an attempt is made to access the Control‑D and Control‑V Active or Migrated User Report file, the CTDSE24 security module is called to check if the access is allowed. In this case, this security module does not perform any security checks. For performance reasons, the check on each screen line is not performed.
