TIBCO® Managed File Transfer Platform Server for z/OS 8.1.0

# The Top Secret Security Interface

TIBCO MFT Platform Server for z/OS works with CA-Top Secret to ensure that end users can only access files for which they are authorized. The Platform Server started task must be defined to CA-Top Secret with the authorization to access all files that might be transferred.

The Platform Server makes standard calls to the System Authorization Facility (SAF). It is not possible to suppress the SAF calls made by the Platform Server. Your security administrator can choose whether to grant individual users or groups access to the Platform Server started task. The Platform Server started task must be defined to CA-Top Secret with the authorization to access all files that might be transferred.

Like other applications that can be signed onto and issue the `RACROUTE TYPE=VERIFY` command, TIBCO MFT Platform Server for z/OS must be defined to CA-Top Secret as a facility.

Before defining the Platform Server facility to CA-Top Secret, you have to decide the attributes that you want the facility to have. These attributes can be modeled after TSO. Ensure the RES, data checking, and multi-user options are set. The initial program must be specified as `FUS` ( `INITPGM(FUS)`). You might want to shut off the last message option and the status message option to avoid console clutter.
