Improve the security of your z/OS environment with new support for digitally
signing the core of your z/OS operating system as you build and maintain it and
verifying those signed executables as part of a secure LOAD/IPL process, to
ensure that these critical load modules have not been tampered with after the
time they were built. New support provides either audit-mode (checking only) or
enforce-mode (checking with termination in the event of a verification failure)
levels of security for securely IPLing z/OS or Standalone Dump, using
customer-provided signing and verification certificates.
