Subject: Preparing for a High-profile Termination
Situation:
High-profile, knowledgeable staff member soon to be terminated (employment, not
by Ahh-nold); has "keys to the kingdom" for both the System i and the network;
likely knows passwords for many service and/or utility profiles on the iSeries.
Requirement:
Prior to term date, analyze system for vulnerabilities associated with a
position like the one described above and prepare a task list that will address
the situation both before and after the termination.
Areas to be reviewed include system values, network attributes (exit points
too), directory entries, SST, job descriptions, subsystem routing entries, all
user and group profile parameters and their implications, authorities to
libraries, directory (WRKLNK) authorities, etc.
Can anyone think of anything else that could be a critical hole that should be
reviewed/covered?
Best regards and TIA,
