Ensure the Server Is Not a Multi-Use System

MittelStufe 1Manuelle Prüfungapache

Beschreibung

Default server configurations often expose a wide variety of services unnecessarily increasing the risk to the system. Just because a server can perform many services doesn't mean it is wise to do so. The number of services and daemons executing on the Apache Web server should be limited to those necessary, with the Web server being the only primary function of the server. Manual review: the benchmark gives no reliable automated check for this control.
