About creating a security plan

This topic provides security recommendations and guidelines for running Sterling Order Management System Software. It is intended to help you create a reasonably secure implementation of the application.

Because we recognize that you may have unique business or operational requirements, Sterling Order Management System Software does not provide a specific set of instructions that you can follow to completion for creating a security plan. Typically, it is not possible to configure a system solely for security at the detriment of other engineering or business realities.

Given the complicated nature of security, it is recommended that you refer to the following documents:

• National Security Agency Central Security Service for tips on how to harden your operating system, database, and network.
• Understanding WebLogic Server Security for tips on how to secure Oracle WebLogic 12.2.1.3.
