Leverage Your Security Expertise in IBM® System z™ Mainframe Environments For over 40 years, the IBM mainframe has been the backbone of the world’s largest enterprises. If you’re coming to the IBM System z mainframe platform from UNIX ®, Linux ®, or Windows ®, you need practical guidance on leveraging its unique security capabilities. Now, IBM experts have written the first authoritative book on mainframe security specifically designed to build on your experience in other environments. Even if you’ve never logged onto a mainframe before, this book will teach you how to run today’s z/OS ® operating system command line and ISPF toolset and use them to efficiently perform every significant security administration task. Don’t have a mainframe available for practice? The book contains step-by-step videos walking you through dozens of key techniques. Simply log in and register your book at www.ibmpressbooks.com/register to gain access to these videos. The authors illuminate the mainframe’s security model and call special attention to z/OS security techniques that differ from UNIX, Linux, and Windows. They thoroughly introduce IBM’s powerful Resource Access Control Facility (RACF) security subsystem and demonstrate how mainframe security integrates into your enterprise-wide IT security infrastructure. If you’re an experienced system administrator or security professional, there’s no faster way to extend your expertise into “big iron” environments. Coverage includes <ul>
<li> Mainframe basics: logging on, allocating and editing data sets, running JCL jobs, using UNIX System Services, and accessing documentation </li> <li> Creating, modifying, and deleting users and groups </li> <li> Protecting data sets, UNIX file system files, databases, transactions, and other resources </li> <li> Manipulating profiles and managing permissions </li> <li> Configuring the mainframe to log security events, filter them appropriately, and create usable reports </li> <li> Using auditing tools to capture static configuration data and dynamic events, identify weaknesses, and remedy them </li> <li> Creating limited-authority administrators: how, when, and why </li> </ul>

So, you want to write a kernel module. You know C, you've written a number of normal programs to run as processes, and now you want to get to where the real action is, to where a single wild pointer can wipe out your file system and a core dump means a reboot. Welcome to the club. Linux Kernel Module Programming Guide is for people who want to write kernel modules. It takes a hands-on approach starting with writing a small "hello, world" program, and quickly moves from there. Far from a boring text on programming, Linux Kernel Module Programming Guide has a lively style that entertains while it educates. Linux Kernel Module Programming Guide is one of the key documents of the Linux Documentation Project, an online compilation of freely distributed manuals and how-to guides on the popular Linux operating system. This book is a printed version of the online documentation, and is provided as a convenience for those who prefer printed manuals. iUniverse.com Computer Books are composed of freely available online computer manuals, industry standard specifications, and electronically distributed computer-programming guides. They include open documents' collections of industry specifications and standards and a collection of the best open source documentation on the Web...the most complete open source library available anywhere.
