Your reviewer had always taken the view that the British Computer Misuse Act and similar anti-hacking legislation worldwide was a legal defence against the weaknesses of operating systems with a long design history. We were fond to ask the rhetorical question, "Who has ever heard of a hacker breaking into an AS/400?". We now have an answer - Joseph S Park. This author also has the answer to the "What shall I do?" question. The AS/400 was and is intended to be a somewhat opaque high level machine. The author indicates the low level knowledge available to programmers who may run amok and shows the preventative steps necessary. Includes programs on a bound in disk.
