Verify Mode

The characteristics of verify mode are as follows:

• The CICS region is started with SEC=YES, XTRAN=YES, and XPCT=YES in the SIT.
• In TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks activities, both the user ID and password are required.
• The user ID and password are used in the CICS region.
• Both the user ID and password are encrypted. TIBCO program SXNSECUR security routine can handle both the encrypted and Clear Text User ID and password.
• The security exit in Sockets Setup is SXNSECUR. The TIBCO COBOL Security routine SXNSECUR provided by TIBCO runs in verify mode.
• IBM Listener calls SXNSECUR with the user ID and password. SXNSECUR decrypts and verifies both the user ID and password, and supports the transaction to continue only if External Security System (usually RACF) indicates that the two parameters match.
• All SXNE transactions run with the user ID and security of the user ID for the plug-in.
• The value of the Userid element for TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Plug-in for CICS must be a SURROGATE of the user ID that CSKL is running under. The CSKL transaction must be supported to start transaction SXNE or SXNT with the user ID for the plug-in.
