This is intended to develop the skills required to reduce security risk and to implement, manage, and rectify compliance and security issues in an efficient way. The tools and methods can be used to make certain that structures are configured and deployed in a manner that meets safety and compliance needs, that they continue to meet those requirements, and that each one existing structures can be audited and corrections and changes continuously applied as those requirements are revised.

This flexibility may help the enterprise to efficiently reduce danger of security breaches, that have a high cost in enterprise disruption, brand erosion, loss of customer and shareholder trust, and financial prices for post-incident rectification. Additionally, the organization may be able to use the tools in this course to help demonstrate that compliance requirements set by customers, auditors, or alternative stakeholders are met.

Security of computing systems could be a method of managing risk through the implementation of processes and standards backed by technologies and tools.

Red Hat Security: Linux in Physical, Virtual, and Cloud is for security administrators and system administrators who need to manage the secure operation of servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux, whether deployed on physical hardware, as virtual machines, or as cloud instances.

• Analyze and rectify system compliance using OpenSCAP and SCAP Workbench, employing and customizing baseline policy content, provided with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

• Monitor security-relevant activity on your systems with the kernel’s audit infrastructure.

• Explain and implement advanced SELinux techniques to restrict access by users, processes, and virtual machines.

• Make sure the integrity of files and their permissions with AIDE.

• Prevent unauthorized USB devices from being used with USBGuard.

• Secure data at rest, but provide secure automatic decryption at boot using NBDE.

• Proactively determine risks and misconfigurations of systems and remediate them with Red Hat Insights.

• Analyze and solve compliance at scale with OpenSCAP, Red Hat Insights, Red Hat Satellite, and Red Hat Ansible Tower.
