Prevent Privileged Users from accessing the Internet
See “vogan” in action for yourself
What’s happening?
Before applying the compliance rules, privileged users (the root user in this case) can access the Internet.
But once the compliance rules are applied, privileged users can no longer access the Internet while leaving normal users completely un-hindered.
Deep Dive the Config File
What’s possible with minimal effort?
- Set the locations (IP addresses, networks and hostnames) that will be whitelisted for the specified groups.
- Include a remote config file. If available, this adds to the local config rules.
- Specify the [primary] groups to apply the restrictions to. Typically, each user has a primary group of the same name.
- All other users and groups are unrestricted by vogan.
All vogan changes are logged to syslog.
Compliance Requirement
Frameworks often require that privileged users cannot access the Internet. This reduces the likelihood of triggering an undesirable event as a user with significant access and permissions. Using vogan, you can prevent the root user (or any designated user) from accessing the Internet while leaving other users un-hindered.
