Checklist Summary:
This CIS Benchmark document is designed to provide novice and above level users with clear guidance for securing Mac OS X Panther. The benchmark guides a user or administrator, from the point of installation (after updates), through the process of securing a Mac OS X workstation. This benchmark implements best practices and techniques through a combination of scripting and user interface security steps to achieve the strict end goal of a secure, functional end-user device (rather than a server).

Change History:
Version 1.02:August 18, 2005: -Typos, punctuation, etcâ?¦ fixes -Rewrote the login warning banner section to remove references to the BootPanel.pdf. Made a mention of the .nib file that can also be changed, but that such a change is outside the scope of the benchmark. Note that this removed a figure, so redid the TOC and TOF. -Added some text to the UID 0 section. -Removed references to â??CONFIGSERVERâ?? in /etc/hostconfig. I believe this was valid in 10.0 and/or 10.1, but I canâ??t find any references to it in Panther or Tiger. -Added text to refer to VPNSERVER. -Added reference for COREDUMPS (/etc/hostconfig) to the section that discusses coredumps. Version 2.0: 2006-10-16
