What Anti-virus software does the new CM 5.0 use being it runs on Linux?
And does cisco have a CSA for 5.0? or being that it's cisco / Linux it
doesn't need anything?

I heard that there will be no third party applications for the linux appliance anways. The argument was, "since there's no way to get anything on the box, you don't need it"

I'm not sure I buy that.

5.0 includes host-based protection which is probably CSA for 5.0. I don't see this being a issue really since theres not a way to load other stuff onthe box now with it being stripped down and people having very minimal access to do stuff at OS level.

Hardened OS-The underlying OS that cisco Unified CallManager 5.0 uses includes thousands of components, of which only 200 to 300 are used to minimizethe number of security vulnerabilities to which cisco Unified CallManager 5.0 may be susceptible. In addition, modifications are made to the OS to further lock it down. For example, all unnecessary logins have been removed or disabled and all OS users log into the CLI as their shell, greatly increasing the security of cisco Unified CallManager 5.0.


• Host-based firewall-Cisco Unified CallManager 5.0 now includes a host-based firewall, yet another security tool to help minimize the likelihood of malicious attacks
