Problem
You’ve recently failed a security audit and need to quickly comply with regulatory requirements.
SOX, HIPAA, GLBA, PCI, Euro -SOX. The acronyms alone are enough to make your head spin. And now you are faced with finding the right solution to comply with Section 404 - where IT systems and controls play a huge role. To complicate matters even further you have a mixed network - Linux, UNIX and Windows systems. You might even be running NIS which most compliance auditors have deemed highly insecure.
You’ve been tasked with making sure all your systems (including Linux and UNIX) ensure proper user authentication and password management and that you can demonstrate separation of duties.
Solution
Compliance reporting from Likewise Enterprise allows you to show what users have access to your Linux and UNIX systems.
Likewise Enterprise allows you to centralize authentication for your mixed network in Microsoft Active Directory. Now, UNIX, Linux, Mac and Windows users can be easily provisioned and de-provisioned using Active Directory. Administrators have more granular control over system access to critical computing devices by enforcing consistent security policies through Active Directory. With Likewise Enterprise, Active Directory Group Policies - such as SuDo - can be extended to Linux, UNIX, and Mac systems to eliminate the need to share root passwords.
In addition, Likewise Enterprise has built-in reporting features that provide easy to view access privilege for all users, groups, containers, and systems managed with Likewise Enterprise. So administrators, compliance auditors, and security auditors can have the necessary supporting documentation showing access privileges for your network.
