Ensure that the SETROPTS PASSWORD(REVOKE) value is set to a maximum of 6
Deskripsi
SETROPTS PASSWORD(REVOKE(<nnn>)) enables you to specify how many consecutive incorrect password and password phrase attempts RACF permits before it revokes the user ID on the next attempt. Note: If you specify REVOKE, INITSTATS must be in effect. The overall goal is it to make it difficult for an attacker to guess a password by trying it against an account, while allowing a user the ability to correct a mistakenly entered password in a reasonable way.
