Siebel Security Hardening Guide > Securing the Operating System > Securing the Siebel File SystemThe Siebel File System consists of a shared directory that is network-accessible to the Siebel Server and contains physical files used by Siebel Business Applications. The Siebel File System stores documents, images, and other types of file attachments. Requests for access to the Siebel File System by Siebel user accounts are processed by Siebel Servers, which then use the File System Manager (FSM) server component to access the Siebel File System. FSM processes these requests by interacting with the Siebel File System directory. Siebel Remote components also access the Siebel File System directly. Other server components access the Siebel File System through FSM. A Siebel proprietary algorithm that compresses files in the Siebel File System prevents direct access to files from outside the Siebel application environment in addition to providing a means of encrypting files. This algorithm is used at the Siebel Server level and appends the extension To provide additional security for the Siebel File System, implement the following recommendations:
