Telestra
Security and Process Details
Certain security features such as secure remote access, SELinux and user accounts are available
on both ACE Studio and the Target platform by default. The additional security package is
available for installation on the Target and Studio.
The
Telestra
security software for the Target and Studio is a one-time delivery and when the
software is purchased you receive the following:
•
Telestra
Software Installation DVD(s)
•
Telestra
Security Software Installation DVD
• ASTi SRR Report(s)
• Updated Options File CD (also called the program software license)
The
Telestra
security software version for the Target and Studio is based on a STIG version. For
example, if you order a security software update in the first quarter of 2008 you will receive the
security software version that was run against the November 15th, 2007 DISA UNIX and Web
Server SRRs.
Future
Telestra
security software packages/upgrades that are required to match the latest STIG
requirements would require the purchase of a new security package. Future upgrades will be
available as required based on customer demand. Additionally, ASTi will provide updates when a
STIG update is available. Based on recent history, this means that if required we would release
approximately four versions per year. However, this is subject to change based on customer
demand and the DISA STIG release schedule.
ASTi highly recommends that customers have an active support contract. Given that no two
customers are alike, neither are their security requirements. The various components of this
process are documented; however, there are always customers with specific questions in this area
requiring some level of support. Support needs will vary from the area of installation or simply
understanding why certain PDIs show the responses that they do in the SRR report.
