(1) A written document that defines the security controls that you institute for your computer systems. A security policy describes the risks that you intend these controls to minimize and the actions that should be taken if someone breaches your security controls.<br />(2) In label-based access control, a database object that is associated with one or more tables and that defines how LBAC can be used to protect those tables. The security policy defines what security labels can be used, how the security labels are compared to each other, and whether optional behaviors are used.

(1) In COBOL, two alphabetic characters (FD or SD) that identify the type of file description entry.<br />(2) In RPG, two characters (L0 through L9 and LR) that control calculation and output processing during total time.
Industry:Software
(1) In VTAM, a technique for configuring a network that allows for the consolidation of many network management functions for the entire network in a single host processor.<br />(2) A configuration in which the VTAM subsystem that owns the terminals is in a different MVS image from the active or the alternate CICS system.
Industry:Software
(1) Actions performed by the CICS system to construct the environment in the CICS region to enable CICS applications to be run. The stage of the XRF process when the active or the alternate CICS system is started, signs on to the control data set, and begins to issue its surveillance signal.<br />(2) The process that reads the initialization statements and creates the tables and control blocks used throughout the JES3 program.
