As you’ve seen in previous blogs we’ve been correcting the accidental deletion of older blogs that hold still useful knowledge. After bringing back blogs by James McPherson and Darryl Gove, we’re now bringing back a set of blogs by one of our long time security engineers Glenn Faden.
These posts he wrote under the handle Trusted Blogger cover various aspects of Oracle Solaris in the security space and how to use and configure its often unique features. Some of the older posts date back to the early Oracle Solaris 11 and even Oracle Solaris 10 days but in many ways are still relevant for Oracle Solaris 11.4. Also, some blogs dragged in older blogs with additional information.
Here’s the list of blogs:
- Mandatory Integrity Control and the Trusted Path Domain
- Immutable Labeled Zones
- Applying Rights Profiles to RAD Modules in Oracle Solaris 11.3
- Oracle Solaris 11.2 Authenticated Rights Profiles
- Oracle Solaris 11.2 Qualified User Attributes
- Oracle Solaris 11.1 Gets Common Criteria Certification
- Getting Started with OpenLDAP
- Adding Users with OpenLDAP
- Permissive and Restricted Policies
- Oracle Solaris Extended Policy and MySQL
- Application Containment via Sandboxing
- A Demonstration of File Relabeling
- What’s new in User Rights Management
- The Year in Review
- Oracle Solaris 11.1 Security Lab
- An Update on Using Xvnc for Remote MLS Sessions
- Maintaining Zone Labels as ZFS Attributes
- Demonstrating Process and File Labeling
- Using Xvnc for Remote MLS Sessions
- Remote Multilevel Desktop Sessions
- Comparing SELinux with Solaris Trusted Extensions
Glenn often links to pages in the documentation, these are for the versions that were current at that time. You will find these are mostly also available for Oracle Solaris 11.4 after a short search.
Enjoy.
