Solaris Security Toolkit

The Solaris Security Toolkit, formerly known as the JumpStart Architecture and Security Scripts (JASS) toolkit, provides a flexible and extensible mechanism to harden and audit Solaris Operating Systems (OSs). The Solaris Security Toolkit simplifies and automates the process of securing Solaris Operating Systems and is based on proven security best practices and practical customer site experience gathered over many years. This toolkit can be used to secure SPARC-based and x86/x64-based systems.
