Re: BASIC SECURITY OFFICER JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

I agree with the Experts Guide to OS/400 & i5/OS Security by Woodbruy and
Botz.  Also excellent (and a very quick read and reference) is Power Tips -
Security for OS/400 Security by Dan Riehl.  This book is available from
www.pentontech.com and goes for less than twenty bucks!

AFAIAC - "Experts' Guide to OS/400 & i5/OS SECURITY" by Carol Woodbury &
Patrick Botz. Most thorough presentation out there. Carol's company
SkyView Partners also sells two software packages that will help you
control your security the way YOU want it to be.  It also creates
reports to be presented, with much bowing and scraping, to your
auditors... :-)

With SOX, security is a BIG issue. You might find after finding out what
it all entails, you might want to put your 'Software Engineer' title on
the shelf for a while...

Subject: [Security400] BASIC SECURITY OFFICER JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Hello all,
 
We are relatively new to the iSeries - migrating from an HP 3000
machine, and I am the Security Officer for a small group of developers
and account managers for a service beareau company.  I have been dubbed
the 'Security Officer' unofficially, in addition to my 'Software
Engineer' title, and would like to define this role more officially.
Does anybody have suggestions as to what the normal functions and duties
of an iSeries security officer are?  Any books, articles, publications,
etc would be helpful.
 
Thanks,
 
Adrienne McConnon
