The Key Features

End-to-End Solution for RACF Management

All actions and changes made to RACF databases managed with Beta Access are captured and logged in a dedicated relational database. This ensures that administrators and auditors have access to accurate RACF data at any time – without the need for granting users direct access to RACF. A database generation concept built into the suite means that you can roll back extensive RACF changes and furthermore provides automatic real-time security monitoring!

Designed for high-availability environments, Beta Access delivers functions for the centralized administration of multiple z/OS systems, including Sysplex/Monoplex support. It thus provides you with a single point of control for all corporate RACF systems.

Coverage of All Key RACF Security Management Areas

Our user-friendly ISPF interface provides centralized functions for RACF administration, streamlining your security management processes.

Furthermore, our system allows even non-technical users to check the RACF system and generate audit reports without requiring direct access to the z/OS system, thanks to a user-friendly Windows interface. This functionality enables the analysis of SMF data as well as RACF and z/OS environment settings, helping you to identify security violations and verify that your RACF settings are adequately protecting your system.

Additionally, you can conveniently analyze your RACF databases using our Windows-based GUI. To enhance security oversight, our real-time monitoring tool alerts relevant staff to critical RACF events, such as unauthorized access to sensitive data or modifications to critical user attributes, ensuring prompt and effective responses to potential security threats.
