Error description
ZCIC0030 enforces CICSUSER as CICS default user but DISA does not require this. The zSecure control should instead use the CKACUST(CICSDEF) customization member.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Audit exploiting the STIG * * compliance control ZCIC0030. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: zSecure Audit checks whether CICS * * region default user is set to the * * 'CICSUSER' value while evaluating * * the STIG compliance control ZCIC0030 * * (CICS System Initialization Table (SIT) * * parameter values must be specified * * according to security requirements) * * resulting in false non-compliant * * results). * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided. * **************************************************************** When zSecure Audit performs evaluation of the STIG compliance control ZCIC0030 (CICS System Initialization Table (SIT) parameter values must be specified according to security requirements), it tests whether the CICS region default user is set to the string 'CICSUSER'. This is no longer required by control ZCIC0030, and thus can result in false non-compliant findings.
Problem conclusion
zSecure Audit has been modified, so that the check whether CICS region default user is set to the 'CICSUSER' value is removed from the STIG compliance control ZCIC0030 (CICS System Initialization Table (SIT) parameter values must be specified according to security requirements).
