Patent ID: 8484724

Claim:
A method, comprising: receiving, at a permissions verification system, a plurality of records, the plurality of records comprising a first record that includes at least a user identifier and an associated first access level that indicates a level of access to a first mainframe system, and a second record that includes at least the user identifier and an associated second access level that indicates a level of access to a second mainframe system, wherein the first record is of a first format and the second record is of a second format, the second format differing from the first format; determining, at the permissions verification system, that the first access level associated with the user identifier in the first record does not match the second access level associated with the user identifier in the second record, wherein determining that the first access level associated with the user identifier in the first record does not match the second access level associated with the user identifier in the second record comprises converting the first format of the first record and the second format of the second record to a common format; 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.
