DocuSP 3.7 security changes

4-4
Xerox is constantly evaluating the security of the DocuSP
controller and the Sun Solaris operating system. Xerox is
committed to providing the latest Solaris security patches
provided by Sun Microsystems in each major DocuSP release.
The DocuSP development team will also add Solaris security
patches in between major release cycles. All OS security
patches for applications that are added during a standard
DocuSP install will be included, even if the application code is
not normally used by DocuSP users. Security patches for
applications that are not loaded by a standard DocuSP install will
not be evaluated or included. Only the version of a patch
impacting security will be included. If a security patch has a
newer version that is not security related, then this patch will not
be updated to the newer version. Any security patch that is
determined to have a negative impact to DocuSP operation will
not be added.
System Security can be selected from the DocuSP. Select
[Medium] security to disable everything in the list of secure
features. Select [High] to enable security and to turn security on
for everything in the list of secure features.
If you have upgraded your DocuSP software from 3.6 to 3.7 and
you are having difficulty with application software that
communicated with the controller, set security to Medium to
resolve the problem.
To assist DocuSP customers, XDSS (Xerox DocuSP Security
Script) was added in the 3.12 software release to help secure the
operating system from unauthorized access and modification.
The DocuSP install routine prompted Xerox service personnel to
determine whether XDSS should be run. In addition, the XDSS
scripts were made resident on the controller so that they could
also be run by the customer at any time.
