Forced Evolution of Security on Redhat Linux Server due to System Compromise


{LANG_NAVORIGIN} Incident Handling Forensics
04/03/2004



This practical assignment describes my experiences in setting up the office computer network system for a small engineering company in Hong Kong and my experiences of handling the system when it was compromised. I will outline the setup of the original server and list, in highlight the mistakes made in the configuration and the impact of these errors will be reviewed. I will demonstrate an effective review of these mistakes and show how a change in implementation by research and training in systems security, helped to rectify the situation and implement a more robust and dependable system. The final sections will review the current status and look at future methods of improving the security of the system and balance these against the time and cost of implementing them. In conclusion I will summarize the mistakes made and outline the lessons learned.
