This course provides the knowledge and practical skills required to secure HPE NonStop systems using NonStop operating system utilities and Safeguard.

Participants explore key areas including the NonStop kernel security architecture, Safeguard installation and administration, user authentication and management, Guardian security, and techniques for securing OSS files.

The theoretical content is reinforced through hands-on laboratory exercises, giving participants an opportunity to work directly with relevant utilities and Safeguard functionality. This four-day course consists of approximately 70% instructor-led theory and 30% hands-on laboratory work using HPE servers.

For corporate groups, we can organize this training as an on-site private group.

Prerequisites

Participants should have:

Knowledge equivalent to Concepts and Facilities for HPE NonStop Systems (U4147S)
Experience using TACL commands such as STATUS, FILEINFO, and WHO to gather information
Familiarity with Guardian utilities including FUP, SCF, and DSAP
Knowledge of basic OSS commands and utilities
The ability to manage user profiles using the PASSWORD and DEFAULT programs

Who Should Attend

This course is particularly suitable for:

Information Security Administrators
Electronic Data Processing (EDP) Auditors
System Operations Management personnel working within security operations

What You Will Learn

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

Explain the $CMON interface and important TACL considerations
Install and configure Safeguard software
Create and manage user IDs
Apply Access Control Lists (ACLs) to system objects
Describe the different sources of audit events
Work with the Safecom command utility
Generate audit reports using the SAFEART utility
Apply standard OSS security mechanisms and OSS ACLs to OSS objects

How You Will Benefit

Participants learn how authentication, authorization, and auditing can be used to establish an appropriate level of protection without unnecessarily restricting application performance or user productivity.

Hands-on work with Safeguard provides practical experience in protecting resources for critical production applications, helping ensure applications are accessed only by authorised clients, and protecting important data against unauthorised or accidental modification.
