Find out how to implement least-privilege security management for Linux and UNIX

19 October 2009

A least-privilege security model has its merits, but it can be challenging to implement in for example Linux and UNIX environments where administrators often share passwords to root- or other superuser accounts. Find out how to implement least-privilege security management for Linux and UNIX for free on October 27 at 10am Pacific Time.

In the webinar Implementing Least-Privilege Security Management in Complex Linux and UNIX Environments, David McNeely, director of product management at Centrify Corporation and Dr. Eugene Schultz, CISM, CISSP and CTO at Emagined Security explore how to tie entitlements to individuals instead of to root or generic accounts.

The webinar will also describe the baseline requirements for implementing a least-privilege security model based on user roles and explain why existing tools such as sudo fall short in delivering enterprise-class security and manageability.

McNeely and Dr. Chultz will take participants through the value of leveraging Active Directory’s centrally managed identities and its rich group- and role-based management capabilities to provide access control and privilege management services to Linux and UNIX systems.

Finally, the webinar will demonstrate how the Centrify Suite provides an integrated, consistent and cost-effective solution for least-privilege security management across some 200 of the most widely used versions of Linux and UNIX.
