Solaris Security
For Solaris sysadmins, it's been very difficult to find solid information on Solaris security. Most Solaris books don't cover security well; most security books don't cover Solaris well. Now, there's an outstanding security book focused totally on Solaris environments: The Solaris Security Handbook. Author Peter Gregory has been responsible for securing everything from top-secret AT&T facilities to casinos. Now, he shares his expert insights, offering specific techniques for protecting every element of a Solaris-based network. Start with an up-to-date look at today's security challenges, and a real-world framework for planning system security. Then, walk through standalone system security: PROMs, physical security, boot paths, filesystem security; permissions; auditing tools; user accounts; passwords; startup and shutdown, and more. Next, learn how to secure network interfaces; architect your network for better security; protect E-mail and printing; restrict access over the network; and enhance the security of NIS, NIS+, DNS, and NFS. You'll even find detailed coverage of disaster recovery -- from advance preparation through recovering compromised systems. For all Solaris and UNIX system administrators.
