Technical Analysis: How to make the server secure?

Servers are an important part of information systems. They are based on operating systems and hardware systems and are responsible for the storage, transmission, processing and distribution of information and data. Because of the importance of the server, it has become the focus of organizational security. But are the various protective measures we are currently taking to protect the server really effective?

For a simple example, firewalls are undoubtedly the main force in protecting servers. However, there are more and more ports that must be open on the firewall. Whether it is Web, E-mail, VPN or other network applications, the firewall needs to be "accommodated". You need to open the corresponding port, which makes the server no longer hidden in the firewall. after that. In fact, your core assets are being severely attacked. Maybe you have taken some simple protection measures, such as encryption, authentication, etc., but these are not enough to protect the servers that actually carry critical data in the background.

Now, you need to protect your data and applications with the most direct means. But what state of the server is considered safe? What features should a secure server have?

According to the GB/T21028-2007 "Information Security Technology Server Security Technical Requirements" promulgated by the National Standardization Committee, the security of the server should include hardware security, operational security, data security, database security and application security. And, each item covers a more comprehensive content. Take the device status monitoring indicator in hardware security as an example. It refers not only to simple monitoring of CPU, memory and hard disk, but also to the case of opening the chassis, the temperature of the power supply, the speed of the fan, and the temperature inside the chassis. Other aspects of monitoring.

Because of the deep involvement in the development of GB/T21028-2007, Inspur Security has a deep understanding of server security. Coupled with the in-depth accumulation of Inspur in server product design and R&D, Inspur Security has recently officially launched. A secure server that truly addresses server security issues.

The Inspur Security Server has several features:

Features 1. Deep filtering from the physical layer to the application layer. The security server is embedded with Inspur high-speed security chip, which can realize depth filtering and access control of Layer 1-7 without affecting performance, realizing real-time detection and monitoring of data flow to and from the server, preventing network data attacks. .

Features Second, the operating system kernel reinforcement. The system kernel is hardened to implement mandatory access control on system data and files. The system account authority is re-divided through the principle of “three rights separation”; the security access token is added to the operating system host and object to implement mandatory access control of the operating system; Service integrity detection; prevent malicious code attacks.

Features 3. Dynamic integration of multiple security technologies. The product integrates network/data/application mandatory access control, intrusion prevention, traffic management, operating system kernel hardening, and application security protection to directly protect enterprise critical data and application systems.

Features Fourth, server security scalability interface. Provide flexible extension interfaces for security products and technologies such as trusted computing, VPN, antivirus, OTP, fingerprint, PKI authentication, encryption, application protection, and security auditing.

Features 5. High reliability hardware platform based on IFA+ intelligent computing architecture. Based on Infa's Elastic Smart Architecture IFA+ concept, the security server hardware platform combines the latest hardware and high reliability technologies with credibility, intelligence, and flexibility to provide high availability support for business system applications.
