Designing My Second Rhel Vm

The security aspects we should watch for in this lab relate mostly to the righty way of configuring the services well, setting up a strong and complex Administrator password. Also we must set up firewall rules to make sure that all iptables rules give access to what’s needed only. In firewall rules, we should allow incoming and out coming DNS and DHCP traffic from and to known ip addresses and ports that we needed to connect to. Moreover, in this lab we used the Microsoft Baseline Security tool, which gives good security alerts about critical security issues and controls in the Windows system unlike Linux where SELinux was restricting access rather than giving alerts.

Many security considerations should come to mind when implementing an internal infrastructure such as the one being built in this lab. When implementing new features into a network, such as a router or a wiki, you need to look at who has access to this feature and what can they actually do with that access. If we look at a

I have learn a lot during this lab. I have learned how osmosis works by using a real life example.

During the POC, the account team also identified that Sutter needed a continuous integration/development framework and process in order to build flexible and scalable integration architecture for future enhancements. They showed Sutter how open-source can help them build such an enterprise-class integration framework. A great POC experience and results convinced Sutter that Red Hat will be a perfect strategic partner for their growing business needs.

The purpose of this assessment is to identify website and network level security issues that could compromise the confidentiality of customer data on Penhaligon's servers and to provide any evidence of security issues for a forthcoming security audit.

To replace both OCURS and Courion systems, a Centrify Identity and Access Management solution is being proposed. Centrify Identity Service improves end-user productivity, supports internal users and external users, manages apps, mobile devices and Macs via Active Directory, LDAP or cloud identity stores. Centrify Identity Access products provide automated account management, simplified privilege management for Windows, Linux and UNIX, and detailed monitoring and reporting. Based on the initial assessment it is apparent that compatibility with UNIX systems is imperative to replace the legacy system. In addition to the current details of the project, I would like to know what additional features the organization would like to have other than integration with UNIX to replacement the current system. What new features would help IT align with the mission of the company?

To run the Directory Server using port numbers less than 1024, such as the default port 389, you must setup and start the Directory Server as

For static IP address, type IP addresses with format (-- removed HTML --) /CIDR (Figure 3).

This is in contrast to Linux distributions, especially Rhel 7. To a less experienced administrator, configuring these operating systems, much less the core services on them can prove to be a daunting task. Anecdotal Evidence: The first time I needed to install and configure DNS on a Linux machine I spent probably upwards of 6 or 7 hours attempting to create a working config and zone file. It took me about 30 minutes to do the same task for the first time on Windows server. It is exactly this type of barrier to entry that hurts the potential security of Linux systems.

The risk assessment of LabNet identified 6 vulnerabilities in the areas described above. These vulnerabilities can be mitigated with the recommended safeguards provided at the end of this assessment. 2 vulnerabilities were rated High, 2 were rated Moderate and 2 were

A:xinetd(extended Internet daemon) is started in my system rather than inetd (internet service daemon). Both of them are super-server daemon started only under request. Because xinetd is more secure than inetd, more Unix- services now replace inetd with xinetd.

This lab included installing multiple services on a single Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Server box, which included DNS, DHCP, openLDAP, NTP, and rsyslog. I have familiarity with installing and managing DNS, DHCP, and NTP, while just learning about openLDAP and ryslog, which are a new concept to me. The installation and configuration of openLDAP allowed me to get a basic general look at the operation of openLDAP, without going too in-depth. I was able to learn how to correctly and efficiently configure both the openLDAP server and client, add users, install schemas, and modify configuration files. Rsyslog was also a new concept to me which brought be a greater sense of local logging using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. This lab focused on deploying a DNS server, a NTP server, and a DHCP server to handle things such as IP address pools, hostname resolution, and a systematic time sync to keep all of the nodes on the network on the same page. Rsyslog allows us to remotely access log files from our servers, allowing us to determine issues from a node without actually being on that node, which is good when dealing with a client computer that is having issues. OpenLDAP allows us to create a directory in a similar manner as Windows Active Directory, to store information in an easily accessible lightweight database.

What potential security problems do you see in the increasing use of intranets and extranets in business? What might be done to solve such problems? Give several examples.

On a short note, DNS server search for the domain name as per the User Request. This process is named as DNS name Resolution and this means DNS servers converts the domain name to IP address. As mentioned earlier, google.com has IP address of 8.8.8.8 which you enter directly into browser will give you the Google’s page. Web site's IP addresses are dynamic and some sites use many IP’s with only one Domain name.Without DNS servers, Internet access would be a lot tougher.
