Quest NC-Pass Started Task name will be properly identified and/or defined to the system ACP.

Rule version ZNCPT030 · STIG v7 · 2025-09-28

Discussion

Quest NC-Pass requires a started task that will be restricted to certain resources, data sets, and other system functions. Defining the started task as a userid to the system ACP allows the ACP to control the access and authorized users that require these capabilities. Failure to properly control these capabilities could compromise the operating system environment, ACP, and customer data.

Fix
