Unix Audits |
| The Unix operating system is a top choice for hosting mission critical IT systems. The client-server architecture along with its network connectivity and reliability has made Unix a central component in production environments.
Continental Audit Services has deep experience with Unix including Solaris, AIX, HP-UX and Linux. Our audits are designed to add value through stronger security, better configuration and adherence to best practices.
We use a holistic approach that covers Unix hosting of critical applications and connectivity to surrounding networks. Some of the specific areas that we cover in our Unix audits are displayed to the right.
Please contact Continental Audit Services to request a proposal tailored to meet your specific requirements. |
