Description ICSF is a software element of z/OS that works with hardware cryptographic features and the Security Server (RACF) to provide secure, high-speed cryptographic services in the z/OS environment. ICSF, which runs as a started task, provides the application programming interfaces by which applications request the cryptographic services.
Version (Hardware) COP chips integrated within processor unit [1] and COP chips integrated within processor unit and P/N 01PP167 [2]
Version (Firmware) Feature 3863 (aka FC3863) with System Driver Level 32L [1], and Feature 3863 (aka FC3863) with System Driver Level 32L and CCA 6.0.8z [2]
Tested configurations
  • IBM z/OS Version 2 Release 4 running on an IBM z14 with CP Assist for Cryptographic Functions [1]
  • IBM z/OS Version 2 Release 4 running on an IBM z14 with CP Assist for Cryptographic Functions with CEX6A [2] (single-user mode)
