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.
Peter H. Gregory is Infrastructure Group Manager for a major telecommunications service provider. He developed and implemented system and network security policies for its research facilities, where he has performed the roles of UNIX system administrator, network engineer, Webmaster and network software developer. Before that, he was lead software engineer for a security product developed for use in large casinos.
