The Linux Operating System has grown in popularity over the last decade with promises of an "open-source" alternative other operating systems. Since it is open-source, users hope to ride the wave of technological features and contribute to their improvement without the limitations or expenses of proprietary operating systems. Although Avaya uses Linux in its product line of Avaya Communication Manager media servers, Avaya take specific steps to customize the installation for reasons of management, performance, and security. This paper outlines the steps Avaya is taking to harden the Linux operating system for use in its media servers.
