Paper Title
Session Management in Mainframe

Abstract
This paper proposes the usage of Session Management in Mainframes. In mainframes, unattended interactive sessions can lead to resource locking and data compromises (or infiltrations). The session timeout features prevents unauthorized access to such unattended sessions. Coupled with data restoration innovation implemented in mainframes, it makes the application more user friendly, innovative, secure and saves time for the user. DB2 plays an important role in managing the sessions in mainframe. This paper also addresses how Session Management will improve the user experience and prevent unauthorized access to unattended sessions in Mainframes. Session Management is implemented using COBOL, DB2, CICS in mainframe. Keywords— Session Management, Mainframes, DB2, Security, Session recovery, Data restoration, Terminal id.
