What's the security level of normal HP-UX?

[Rashid Ali]

May I know What's the security level of normal HP-UX? I was told trusted system is C2-level, how about untrusted system?

Thanks,

Im not sure standard HP-UX nontrusted has a security level associated with it. All the info you need on security is here;

The standard Unix system does not have a level security related to itself

Standard HP-UX security features appear to conform to the D-level descriptions.

Standard can not be that high, I agree that D-Level may be close....A good admin though, can have the seat to almost a C level within hours of tightening....mostly by closing down ports.....meaning that you dont HAVE to go to trusted mode.....To reach C-2 however requires special things be done with user accounts, this is where trusted mode is critical!

Hi Zhang,
similar to Stephan, just have a look at that document,but any how it depends on till which limits you want to secure you server,there is alot of simple tools to secure you server.

Can you introduce some of these tools that are available on HP-UX 10.20? May I know whether it is commercial products or shareware?
Thanks,
