Due to the fact that CICS was set up with extremely lax RACF controls, the admins recently discovered that there was a loophole in the this subsystem that could potentially have destroyed the entire FanDeZhi system. Given that the admins lack the required RACF expertise to close this loophole, we've decided to take CICS down, and it's unlikely to be restarted for a very long time, if at all.
