Monitor for new objects installed on the system

Prevent or restrict users' from installing their own programs

When users on your system have unnecessary special authorities, your efforts to develop a good object-authority security scheme may be wasted. Object authority is meaningless when a user profile has *ALLOBJ special authority. A user with *SPLCTL special authority can see any spooled file on the system, no matter what efforts you make to secure your output queues. A user with *JOBCTL special authority can affect system operations and redirect jobs. A user with *SERVICE special authority may be able to use service tools to access data without going through the operating system.

You can use the Print User Profile (PRTUSRPRF) command to print information about the special authorities and user classes for user profiles on your system. When you run the report, you have several options:

All user profiles
User profiles with specific special authorities
User profiles that have specific user classes
User profiles with a mismatch between user class and special authorities.

You can run these reports regularly to help you monitor the administration of user profiles.
