Sudo: You€re Doing It Wrong
Unix-like operating systems use a rudimentary access control system: the root account can do anything, while other users are peasants with only minimal access. This worked fine in UNIX€s youth, but now that sysadmin responsibilities are spread among many people and applications, many people need a tiny slice of root€s power.
Sudo lets you divide root€s monolithic power between the people who need it with accountability and auditability.
Sudo Mastery will teach you to:
- design a secure sudo policy
- simplify policies with lists and aliases
- manage shell environments
- verify system integrity via intrusion detection
- deploy a single sudo policy across your enterprise
- manage sudo policies via LDAP
- log and debug sudo
- record and replay full sudo sessions
- use authentication systems other than passwords
Master sudo with Sudo Mastery!
