Securing Deployment Solution
To effectively manage computers, Altiris® Deployment Solution™ software requires
access beyond the files and database owned by the application. Example: Deployment
Solution requires rights to install software on managed computers and rights to join
computers to a domain during configuration.
The broad range of tasks performed by Deployment Solution enables simplified
management but also introduces a greater need for strong security policies.
This guide walks you through the phases of security planning, including setting access
rights, database security, and securing communications.
This guide is divided into the following parts:
Part 1: Deployment Server Accounts
To run the Deployment services, perform domain tasks, and provide automation access
to the Deployment Share, we recommend creating separate accounts with minimal
privileges to perform each of these tasks. This minimizes security risks while still
allowing Deployment Solution to manage computers.
We recommend creating the following accounts:
Deployment Server

computers, jobs, and settings within the Deployment
Console.

database access.

Deployment Server and Agent.
Appendix A: Agent

Appendix B: Managing

and enabling server redirection when using key-based
authentication.
