Using Common Criteria Tools on Mac OS X

Subtitle: How to audit systems for compliance with business and government standards
Description: Certain standards are put into place, regardless of the operating system, to allow for a fair comparison between those unlike systems. These standards allow for a common set of values to be measured against one another to insure systems are sufficiently secured based on the given documentation. The U.S. government uses a set of standards called Common Criteria Tools to evaluate systems and many businesses also use these audits for comparison purposes. Mac OS X is judged against other systems based on the outcome of these tests. In this session, you will learn how Common Criteria Tools came to be, how to run the audit on your systems, and how to increase your audit score to insure your systems are more secure than those using another operating system.
