ORACLE DATA SHEET Oracle Solaris 11: Security, Speed, Simplicity Oracle Solaris 11.3 is the world’s most advanced enterprise operating system. It is a secure, integrated, and open platform engineered for largescale enterprise cloud environments, allowing organizations to deploy enterprise mission-critical applications safely and securely with no compromise. It combines all the security and compliance capabilities needed in the data center today together with OpenStack, zero-overhead virtualization, and agile application deployment—all in a single, supported cloud platform. Oracle Solaris enables customers to easily build efficient, secure, and compliant cloud environments. • Centralized cloud management with OpenStack Oracle Solaris combines the power of industry-standard and unique OS security features, antimalware capabilities, and compliance management tools for low-risk application deployments and cloud infrastructure. With zero-overhead encryption technology, organizations can protect data in memory, at rest, and in motion. Cloud-ready application provisioning in minutes with Unified Archives World-Class, Industry-Leading Security Ensure a secure infrastructure through hardware enforced antimalware protections via Oracle’s Software in Silicon technology, which provides unique security mechanisms and industry-standard security controls No-compromise virtualization with Oracle Solaris Zones and Kernel Zones Compared to a Linux/x86 platform, Oracle’s SPARC M7 processor enables Oracle Solaris to run the AES-CFB encryption algorithm 4x faster and the SHA512 encryption algorithm 17.9x faster. Application-driven software defined networking with Elastic Virtual Switch Integrated compliance monitoring and reporting Simplify generating compliance reports by using the Oracle Solaris compliance tool. Built-in security policies include PCI-DSS and Oracle's recommended configurations. Sandbox applications, users, and virtual machines via centralized security requirements while delegating necessary access to business units for operational flexibility and centralized control. Deliver hardware-assisted cryptography for Oracle Database, Java Cryptography Extension middleware, or any application. Oracle Solaris enhances the OpenStack security posture by automatically sandboxing the infrastructure services, limiting allowed behavior, and providing seamless methods to administer, delegate, and record administrative actions across hardware, software infrastructure, and application tiers. The Oracle Solaris integrated deployment workflow ensures businesses can stay secure and compliant from the very start. Once an application environment has been developed, tested, and certified, it can be securely deployed and locked down for production use with Oracle Solaris Immutable Zones. This helps to ensure that applications are not compromised and are always compliant, which is critical when deploying thousands of virtual machines (VMs) in a cloud environment.
