I am asking this question so that I can understand and anticipate any Security 
issues for the PREVENTION of such an occurrance. What after all is A SECURITY 
OFFICER
SUPPOSED  to do but to understand what COULD happen, and show how her/she has a 
plan to prevent it, a testing system, whereby he/she can test this concern. 
 
This is from a threat outside of the AS/400. Internally, there are issues of  a 
user adopting a higher authority. Potentially anyone who has ALLOBJ can wreak 
havoc. How do you plan for a lunatic programmer who wipes out records either 
inadvertantly or maliciously?
 
How to prevent these problems and what these problems are in total is what I am 
looking for  here?

Rob,

I love the machine too much to even consider such a thing. 

I am shocked, nay....flabbergasted ..., that anyone would even want to
consider doing such a bad thing! (tears, boo..hoo)

Cheers
