From the Back Cover

The total HP-UX 11i security reference and implementation guide

  • Thorough coverage of HP-UX 11i's powerful new host security features
  • Monitoring system access, activity, and change
  • 10 ways to gain root access-what every system administrator needs to know
  • Implementing Kerberos, PAM, IPSec, SCM, SCR, and IDS/9000

No other book offers this much HP-UX-specific security coverage! In this authoritative, comprehensive administrator's guide, leading HP-UX consultant Chris Wong covers every key aspect of HP-UX host security. Wong introduces "hot-off-the-press" HP-UX 11i capabilities and techniques for keeping mission-critical systems safe-even when firewalls fail and backdoors are discovered. Coverage includes:

  • Understanding and addressing your key vulnerabilities
  • 10 ways to gain root access-and what to do about them
  • Managing users, groups, files, and directories from a security perspective
  • Controlling access to the system and securing key services
  • Safely distributing root privileges
  • Using HP-UX software to enhance system security: SCM, SCR, Restricted SAM, IDS/9000, and the Security Patch Check Tool
  • Security techniques for the multi-host environment: Berkeley programs, SSH, NIS, NIS+, LDAP, Kerberos, PAM, and IPSec/9000
  • Tools and techniques for monitoring system activity and change
  • Using public-domain programs: SARA, Tripwire, sudo, and logrotate

HP-UX 11i Security is the essential security resource for every HP-UX system administrator, from novice to advanced level—and for every consultant, manager, security specialist, and e-business professional responsible for protecting HP-UX applications and data.
