Configurable Security Functionality
|
The Trusted Solaris 8 Operating Environment can easily be configured to meet a wide range of customer security policies -- without impacting functionality.
|
|
Trusted Roles
|
There are no superuser accounts with Trusted Solaris 8 software; systems administrators are as accountable for their actions as users.
|
|
Solaris 8 Base Platform
|
The Trusted Solaris Operating System supports 32-bit and 64-bit SPARC systems (up to and including the Sun Fire 15K Server), as well as the x86 platform (32-bits), with advanced multithreading and symmetric multiprocessing support.
|
|
Window System Based on CDE (Common Desktop Environment)
|
Trusted Solaris 8 software provides a familiar, easy-to-use environment with extensions to prevent spoofing and tools for ease of use and administration of security.
|
|
Administration Based on Solaris Management Console 3.0 FCS Framework and NIS+
|
With a wide range of standard tools, the Trusted Solaris 8 Operating Environment requires less training for system administrators and allows implementation of enterprise-wide security policy. It leverages the Solaris 8 software experience in that any administrator familiar with the Solaris 8 Operating Environment will also be familiar with Trusted Solaris 8 administration mechanisms.
|
|
Multilevel File System
|
The Trusted Solaris 8 Operating Environment uses a multilevel file system that allows segregation of different classes of (internal and external) users, with strictly enforced control over what data they can see and what operations they can perform.
|
|
Execution Profiles
|
With the Trusted Solaris 8 Operating Environment, users and roles can be limited to a specific set of commands and actions that are needed for individuals to perform specific jobs.
Execution profiles can be defined to assign authorizations to accounts and privileges to commands and actions. This enables users or roles to bypass security restrictions when needed to accomplish a defined set of tasks, without providing them access to everything.
