DEF CON 14 (2006),
Aug. 4, 2006, 7 p.m.
(50 minutes).
Apple claims not to care about the enterprise market, but there is no doubt that Apple networks are growing. The number of Apple systems in enterprise networks are growing as well. For security purposes it is becoming more and more important to manage these systems in the same way that we manage Windows clients.
In this session we will cover the tools that Apple and some 3rd party organizations have been quietly building for use in these environments. We will also cover the methods Apple has started using to facilitate running security updates on their workstations.
This is a good session for security professionals who have Mac systems on their networks. Tools we will cover:
Mac OS X Server Managed Clients
Nagios
Radmind
Apple Remote Desktop
HenWen
Tripwire
Open Directory Password policies
ipfw and dummynet
Centrify DirectControl
Dave
AdmitMac
