System Security

IMOGEN: To your protection I commend me, gods. From fairies and the tempters of the night Guard me, beseech ye.

Cymbeline, II, ii, 8–10.

System configuration and administration relies on many principles of security and assurance. This chapter considers how the administration of security affects the system. It begins with a policy for the DMZ web server system and for a development system in the internal network. It explores the configuration and maintenance of several system components in light of the policy and in light of principles of computer security. This illuminates how the practice of computer security is guided by the fundamental principles discussed throughout this book.
