Operating System Vendor Support and Certification
The assurance of a vendor to provide operating system support and maintenance for their product is an important criterion to ensure product stability and security over the life of the product. A ce...Group -
The Installed Operating System Is Vendor Supported
The installed operating system must be maintained by a vendor. Oracle Linux is supported by Oracle Corporation. As the Oracle Linux vendor, Oracle Corporation is responsible for providing security...Rule High Severity -
Disk Partitioning
To ensure separation and protection of data, there are top-level system directories which should be placed on their own physical partition or logical volume. The installer's default partitioning sc...Group -
Encrypt Partitions
Oracle Linux 8 natively supports partition encryption through the Linux Unified Key Setup-on-disk-format (LUKS) technology. The easiest way to encrypt a partition is during installation time. <br> ...Rule High Severity -
Ensure /home Located On Separate Partition
If user home directories will be stored locally, create a separate partition for <code>/home</code> at installation time (or migrate it later using LVM). If <code>/home</code> will be mounted from ...Rule Low Severity -
Ensure /tmp Located On Separate Partition
The/tmp
directory is a world-writable directory used for temporary file storage. Ensure it has its own partition or logical volume at installation time, or migrate it using LVM.Rule Low Severity -
Ensure /var Located On Separate Partition
The <code>/var</code> directory is used by daemons and other system services to store frequently-changing data. Ensure that <code>/var</code> has its own partition or logical volume at installation...Rule Low Severity -
Ensure /var/log Located On Separate Partition
System logs are stored in the/var/log
