DoS is a condition when a resource is not available for legitimate users. When this occurs, the organization either cannot accomplish its mission or must operate at degraded capacity. To reduce the possibility or effect of a DoS, the application server must employ defined security safeguards. These safeguards will be determined by the placement of the application server and the type of applications being hosted within the application server framework. There are many examples of technologies that exist to limit or, in some cases, eliminate the effects of DoS attacks (e.g., limiting processes or restricting the number of sessions the application opens at one time). Employing increased capacity and bandwidth, combined with service redundancy or clustering, may reduce the susceptibility to some DoS attacks.
At the command prompt, execute the following command: grep keepaliveTimeout /opt/vmware/etc/sfcb/sfcb.cfg | grep -vE '^#' If the value of "keepaliveTimeout" is missing, commented out, or less than "15", this is a finding.
Navigate to and open /opt/vmware/etc/sfcb/sfcb.cfg. Configure the sfcb.cfg file with the following value: 'keepaliveTimeout: 15'
Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS
class id, if you view the page source) point to
globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the
link location and paste anywhere you need to talk
unambiguously about these things.
You can obtain data about documents and items in other
formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept:
text/turtle or
Accept: application/rdf+xml.
