Beta Access manages and secures RACF data in mainframe environments by providing a centralized platform for administering RACF databases, capturing security-relevant events, and escalating them to monitoring systems. The tool offers a Windows-based GUI for analyzing RACF databases and real-time monitoring of critical security events. It supports centralized administration of multiple z/OS systems, including Sysplex/Monoplex environments, and allows delegation of routine authorization tasks to local administrators. Beta Access also includes features for generating audit reports, analyzing SMF data, and ensuring compliance with security policies. It logs all changes to RACF databases in a relational database for transparency and auditing purposes.
