A large number of expensive Unix hosts support 80% of the information-critical core business. The account management of these hosts has security bugs and hidden dangers, and there are problems such as dead accounts and shared accounts. · The neural nodes of information-based business are mostly supported by expensive switches and routers. The management of these critical nerves is very dependent on people to maintain. · Equipment operations cannot be effectively recorded, leaving review credentials, and accounts that are completely controlled by people increase security risks. · The authentication strength of servers and network devices is not high, usually only static password authentication methods, and static passwords are often weak passwords, resulting in the risk of unauthorized access to the core server. · The complexity of information applications determines the cross-management of multiple roles (system/database/security/audit administrator/maintenance vendor, etc.). The authorization of partners cannot be effectively supervised, and rapid, comprehensive and effective proof cannot be provided after a failure, which brings bottlenecks to business growth. · Operation and maintenance personnel use the omnipotent Telnet/SSH remote management tool, which provides opportunities for internal unscrupulous employees, dissatisfied employees, and former employees to deliberately destroy. Due to the lack of a reliable tracking and positioning mechanism, losses are caused and responsibilities cannot be held accountable. "A good horse will also lose its front hoof." Users with legal rights cannot be identified due to negligence and operation errors, resulting in losses.
