1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, at a permissions verification system, a plurality of records identifying at least a user identifier and associated first access level, the associated first access level indicating a level of access to a first mainframe system;
determining, at the permissions verification system, whether the first access level associated with the user identifier in the record matches a second access level associated with the user identifier stored at a second mainframe system, the second access level indicating a level of access to the second mainframe system; and
responsive to determining that the first access level does not match the second access level, providing a notification of an inconsistency between the first access level and the second access level.

Abstract
A system and method of verifying accuracy of permission and access levels in a mainframe system are presented. The system and method may include receiving a plurality of records including a user identifier and an associated access level. The access level in the record may be matched (e.g., the access level on the stored record must be less than or equal to the access on the new system to “pass” the test) to the access level in a mainframe system. If the access levels match, the access level may be stored in the mainframe system. If the access levels do not match, the record may be flagged and correction of the inconsistency may be performed.

9. One or more computer readable media storing computer readable instructions that, when executed, cause an apparatus to:
-
receive, at a permissions verification system, a plurality of records identifying at least a user identifier and associated first access level, the associated first access level indicating a level of access to a first mainframe system; determine, at the permissions verification system, whether the first access level associated with the user identifier in the record matches a second access level associated with the user identifier stored at a second mainframe system, the second access level indicating a level of access to the second mainframe system; and responsive to determining that the first access level does not match the second access level, provide a notification of an inconsistency between the first access level and the second access level. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 13, 14)

15. An apparatus comprising:
-
a processor; and memory operatively coupled to the processor and storing computer readable instructions that, when executed, cause the apparatus to; receive, at a permissions verification system, a plurality of records identifying at least a user identifier and associated first access level, the associated first access level indicating a level of access to a first mainframe system; determine, at the permissions verification system, whether the first access level associated with the user identifier in the record matches a second access level associated with the user identifier stored at a second mainframe system, the second access level indicating a level of access to the second mainframe system; and responsive to determining that the first access level does not match the second access level, provide a notification of an inconsistency between the first access level and the second access level. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, at a permissions verification system, a first user identifier; attempting a first login to a mainframe system, by the permissions verification system, including inputting the first user identifier and a default password, the default password being a password provided upon creation of the first user identifier; and responsive to determining that the first login was successful, notifying a user associated with the first user identifier that the default password is associated with the first user identifier and does not meet a predetermined level of security. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
