  • 1.  IBM Guardium Windows OS - Parameters

    Posted Mon September 28, 2020 12:40 AM
    hi,

    What are the S-Tap parameters to install for Windows based Servers for blocking, masking(redaction) and Quarantine?
    Could you share the link to gain knowledge about S-TAP parameters and usage of those?

    Thanks,
    Panendar Rao.C

    Hi Phanendra,

    In order to turn on blocking / redact / quarantine actions for Windows STAP, we need to enable the WINSTAP FIREWALL parameters.  To enable winstap blocking capabilities, you need to set FIREWALL_INSTALLED = 1.  For a full list of other firewall parameter options, you can see here:

    https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSMPHH_11.2.0/com.ibm.guardium.doc.stap/stap/r_stapparmsw_firewall.html

    Note that the firewall parameter is just the first step.  Depending on your firewall parameter options, you may need to set appropriate attach/detach policy rules before blocking actions.  You can see the blocking policy rule actions here:

    Hope this helps.
