ISO 27002 audit season baby!
Sounds thrilling!!
I’ll be on vacation for our audit next week. I’m thrilled to miss it.
Did a website pentest - something I did not do for a while. Was very fun and we also had some interesting findings :)
Sounds like a fun assignment! Glad you got some interesting results!
What are you normally up to?
Security operating
Working on an Ansible playbook to configure our security baseline over all the network devices we manage.
Can you share any of the baseline that’s not specific to your org/sensitive? What sources are you using as a reference?
I am using the Cisco hardening guide with some tweeks.
Covers things like only allowing sshv2, enable logging of commands to syslog, disabling the switch web servers.
Nice. You guys allowing the playbooks to configure or just audit?
we use the playbooks to configure, the trick is to do it in an idempotent way so when something is changed it doesn’t kick off alarm bells.
SNMPv3 is my current bane as snmpv3 accounts are not stored in running config so snmp always says something is changed.
