22-01-09 / 22:41 : Apple : Guide de la sécurité pour MacOSX (cjed) | Apple publie un guide de sécurité pour MacOSX extrêmement complet (260 pages) et technique, destiné à des administrateurs réseau avertis, pour les contextes d'utilisation sensibles (administrations, défense, etc.) :
This document is intended for use by security professionals in sensitive
environments. Implementing the techniques and setting found in this document will
impact system functionality and may not be appropriate for every user or environment.
Le document rappelle en introduction les nouveautés apportées par Leopard en matière de sécurité :
Better Trojan horse protection. Mac OS X Leopard marks files that are downloaded to help prevent users from running malicious downloaded applications.
Stronger runtime security. New technologies such as library randomization and sandboxing help prevent attacks that hijack or modify the software on your system.
Easier network security. After you’ve activated the new Mac OS X Leopard application firewall, it configures itself so you get the benefits of firewall protection without needing to understand the details of network ports and protocols.
Improved secure connectivity. Virtual private network (VPN) support has been enhanced to connect to more of the most popular VPN servers without additional software.
Meaningful security alerts. When users receive security alerts and questions too frequently, they may fall into reflexive mode when the system asks a security-related question, clicking OK without thought. Mac OS X Leopard minimizes the number of security alerts that you see, so when you do see one, it gets your attention.
