Just a quicky - I'm webbing the surf to put together some hardening best
practices for a few servers, and came across the following statement in an
introduction to new features for Sol 9:
"On the security front, Sun has added new security features, including the
SunScreen 3.2 enterprise class firewall, Secure Shell, IPSec, Kerberos v5
server, buffer overflow protection, security hardening scripts, extensible
password encryption, and role-based access control (RBAC)."
The interesting bit for me, is the hardening scripts. I'm not sure whether
they exist or not, or if the Security Toolkit is being referred to, which to
my knowledge isn't really a supported product, and has nothing specifically
to do with Sol 9. I've searched around, but can't find anything anywhere
that confirms or denies
Any pointers? I'm just after knowing whether any built in scripts exist,
and where they are if they do, not hardening tips in general.
Many thanks.
Dan
