Process Control

Overview

PRCOSEEP is a Security Eevent Exit Process, attached to SAFEGUARD. It controlls all program executions and can limit the number of processes on a 'by user' and/or 'by object' basis.

It supports these functions:

  • Definition of object type files allowed to become executed
    (restriction of object files to specific locations).
  • Restriction of users to execute an object file
    (this is on top of SAFEGUARD and GUARDIAN).
  • Definition of maximum number of process instances per object file and user.
    e.g. GHS.CARL is allowed to execute 10 SCLCI, while SUPER.OPERATOR can execute only 2 SQLCI in parallel.
  • Definition of maximum number of process instances per object file system wide.
    e.g. GHS.CARL is allowed to execute 10 SCLCI, while SUPER.OPERATOR can execute only 2 SQLCI in parallel, but in total only 11 SQLCI are allowed on the system.
  • Deny of process recursions.
    A process can NOT start a copy of itself.  E.g.: SCF can be prevented from starting itself, or a user written process no longer can create itself in a loop with the intention to crash the system.
  • Full wildcard support for users as well as objects.
