HP Virtual Server Environment (VSE) for HP Integrity servers and
blades provides an automated infrastructure that can adapt in seconds
with mission-critical reliability. HP VSE allows you to optimize server
utilization in real time by creating virtual servers that can automatically
grow and shrink based on business priorities and service-level
objectives.
HP-UX Software Assistant (SWA) is a command-line based tool that
consolidates and simplifies patch management and security bulletin
management on HP-UX systems. The SWA tool is new for HP-UX
releases and includes Security Patch Check (SPC), and is the HPrecommended utility to use to maintain currency with HP-published
security bulletins for HP-UX software.
HP-UX Workload Manager (HP-UX WLM) is a resource management
tool that provides automatic CPU resource allocation and application
performance management based on your service-level objectives
(SLOs) and business priorities. WLM is most effective managing
applications that are CPU-bound. It automatically adapts system or
partition CPU resources (cores) to the demands, SLOs, and priorities of
the running applications. (A core is the actual data processing engine
within a processor, where a single processor can have multiple cores,
and a core can support multiple execution threads through HyperThreading, introduced with HP-UX 11i v3, as discussed below.) It
adjusts the CPU allocation of a group of processes known as a
workload, basing adjustment on the current needs and performance of
the applications in that workload.
Insight Management Agents should be installed on all HP servers to
present system instrumentation, health and configuration information
into HP Systems Insight Manager and the HP System Management
Homepage. The HP System Management Homepage aggregates
systems data from Insight Management Agents and other HP
management tools, providing a consolidated browser-based interface
for managing individual servers.

(EVFS)
Function
EVFS is an operating system service that fills the compliance need to
store files in a way that they cannot be read by unauthorized parties who
obtain physical access to storage. Files and databases from current
applications can be encrypted without changes to the application or
underlying storage infrastructure. Read more

HP-UX TCS provides software support for hardware-enforced key
management on supported HP Integrity servers. By providing a low-cost
embedded security chip option (known as a Trusted Platform Module) in
its zx2-based Integrity servers, HP has established a foundation for
strong protection of sensitive information - including cryptographic keys,
such as for EVFS.
HP-UX 11i security containment introduces three core technologies:
compartments, fine-grained privileges, and role-based access control.
Together, these three components provide a highly secure operating
environment without requiring applications to be modified. Read more
PS-Webserver is a pre-configured secure Web services platform built
on HP-UX. The secure architecture and run time environment isolates
the Internet from backend servers and isolates the Web server from the
intranet. Read more
Open SSL offers a general-purpose cryptography library and
implementation of the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport
Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols.
Secure Shell is a powerful software-based approach to encrypted
network security. It provides secured remote login. Credentials and data
sent over the network are encrypted by SSH-1 or SSH-2 protocols and
decrypted once they reach their destination
IPSec adds integrity protection and confidentiality to network
communication over the Internet and within the enterprise to
applications which lack these capabilities without modifying existing
applications.
MD5sum provides a cryptographic file integrity utility and API based on
the standard Message Digest 5 (MD5) algorithm.
In addition to the fully-supported features listed above, HP packages a
number of limited-support open source products that offer additional
data security, including: OpenSC/OpenCT, ClamAV, CyrusSASL,
GnuPG, SSLDump, Stunnel, and Tripwire.
Bastille is a very easy-to-use security hardening wizard (also known as
a lockdown wizard) that enhances the security of an HP-UX 11i host by
turning off unneeded services, tightening security configuration settings,
configuring IPFilter, etc. It accommodates the various degrees of
hardening required for web, application and database servers, and can
walk a non-security expert through the hardening decisions.
HIDS enhances host-level security with near real-time automatic
monitoring of each configured host for signs of potentially damaging
intrusions. HIDS is a standard feature of HP-UX 11i, making HP the only
systems vendor to offer its own host intrusion detection product. Read
more
Secure Resource Partitions combine kernel level security (via Security
Containment) and proven resource management to stack multiple
applications within the same operating system.
IPFilter is a stateful firewall (filters IP packets to control packet flow in or
out of the system; stateful simplifies and increases security of rule
definitions by allowing return traffic based on outbound rules without
having to define broader inbound rules). HP's unique dynamic
connection allocation provides protection from denial-of-service attacks.
IPFilter provides increased security defense by minimizing the number
of server exposure points.

HP-UX SWA is a command-line tool that consolidates, simplifies and
helps automate patch and security bulletin management on HP-UX
systems. The SWA tool is the HP-recommended utility to maintain
currency with HP-published security bulletins for HP-UX software.
Install-time Security (ITS) is available to customers running HP-UX 11i
v2 or later releases of the operating system, as an install option to
lockdown systems during installation. ITS makes HP-UX 11i more
secure out-of-the-box when customers select higher security levels.
There are four choices, ranging from a highly locked down (DMZ) level
with a tightly configured IPFilter firewall blocking most inbound traffic
(and many services also disabled or secured) to a maximum
compatibility level which installs security tools, but doesn't apply a
security level.
A site's security policies may require users to authenticate before they
can boot the system into single-user mode. Previously, this feature was
only available on a system that had been converted to Trusted Mode.
This product now provides secure single-user mode with root password
protection, but without the overhead of converting the system to trusted
mode.
Enhances the system security of HP-UX 11i v2 and v3. Several security
features previously available only in trusted mode are now available on
standard mode HP-UX 11i systems. Features include enhanced
password and user account security, such as password expiration on
inactivity history reuse restrictions, auditing, and much more.
Shadow Passwords enhance system security by hiding user encrypted
passwords in a shadow password file. Encrypted passwords previously
stored in the publicly readable /etc/passwd file can be optionally moved
to the /etc/shadow file, which is accessible only by a privileged user.
The Strong Random Number Generator provides a cryptographically
strong, non-reproducible source of true random numbers for
applications with strong security requirements, such as for generating
encryption keys
In addition to the fully-supported features listed above, HP packages a
number of limited-support open source products that offer additional
system security, including: Chkrootkit, PAM_passwdqc, DanteSOCKS,
Snort, Nessus, Xinetd.
Providing the most complete and integrated solution for security
management, IdMI allows administrators to enforce critical system
access and authorizations. In addition to integrated enforcement, with
the bundled version of Select Access for IdMI, customers benefit from
single-vendor support for this mission critical capability.
Select Access for IdMI is a follow-up product to the HP-UX Identity
Management Integration feature. This version of Select Access supports
complete administration of HP-UX security policy for both user
authentication and access control privileged functions within the OS.
HP-UX security policy can be centrally controlled and managed through
Select Access.
HP-UX RBAC (a component of security containment) is an alternative to
the traditional "all-or-nothing" root user model, which grants permissions
to the root user for all operations, and denies permissions to non-root
users for certain operations. HP-UX RBAC allows you to distribute
administrative responsibilities by creating roles with appropriate
authorizations and assigning them to non-root users and groups.

HP-UX 11i AAA Server provides authentication, authorization and
accounting services using the RADIUS and EAP protocols to
authenticate and authorize user access to network devices and software
applications. The AAA Server also generates usage logs for accounting,
auditing and billing purposes.
Red Hat Directory Server is a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
(LDAP) compliant software server that centralizes user profiles,
application settings, group data, policies and access control information
into a network-based registry. The server is available on HP-UX 11i and
operates on both HP 9000 and HP Integrity 64-bit hardware server
platforms.
With growth, consolidation and a dynamic environment, enterprises
need new technologies to manage and verify security in their IT
environments. In a highly distributed environment, local processes,
security practices and administration methods are often inconsistent,
repetitive and difficult to audit. With LDAP-UX Enterprise IT architects
can use LDAP directories as one tool to help unify and simplify many of
the above-mentioned practices
Kerberos Server provides key distribution facilities to implement the
Kerberos authentication protocol in network-distributed enterprises. It
operates with an LDAP directory providing integrated identity
management for authentication and access control.
PAM Kerberos provides transparent Kerberos login support for HP-UX.
HP-UX provides Kerberos Client software including libraries, header
files, and utilities for implementing secured client/server applications
In addition to the fully-supported features listed above, HP packages a
number of limited-support open source products that offer additional
identity management, including: Perl-LDAP, sudo, and OpenSAML.
