System Files Permissions Verification

This task sets the permissions on system files to the security level you designate. It is run when the system is installed. If you decide later to alter the previously established levels, run this task again. At low security, the permissions are set to values that are appropriate for an open information-sharing environment. At medium security, the permissions are tightened to produce adequate security for most environments. At high security, they are tightened to severely restrict access.

Any modifications that this task makes to system files permissions or parameter settings are reported in the tune.rpt file. "Tune Files" shows an example of the files that ASET consults when setting permissions.
