Description
The z/OS RACF Program Signature Verification package consists of the core module (IRRPVERS) that is utilized when verifying signed code as it is loaded as well as an auxiliary module responsible for driving the initialization of IRRPVERS. The RACF Program Signature Verification module consists of software-based cryptographic algorithms, as well as hashing algorithms provided by the CP Assist for Cryptographic Function (CPACF).
