Puppet Class: security_baseline::rules::debian::sec_httpd

Defined in:
manifests/rules/debian/sec_httpd.pp

Summary

Ensure HTTP server is not enabled (Scored)

Overview

HTTP or web servers provide the ability to host web site content.

Rationale: Unless there is a need to run the system as a web server, it is recommended that the service be disabled to reduce the potential attack surface.

Examples:

class security_baseline::rules::debian::sec_httpd {
    enforce => true,
    message => 'Test',
    log_level => 'info'
}

Parameters:

  • enforce (Boolean) (defaults to: true) —

    Enforce the rule or just test and log

  • message (String) (defaults to: '') —

    Message to print into the log

  • log_level (String) (defaults to: '') —

    The log_level for the above message
