SecurityOS X offers technology and strong, easy-to-use tools for Mac and network security. It’s important that you maintainsecurity at every level by protecting your user data, Mac, and network.System Integrity ProtectionSystem Integrity Protection is a security technology built in to OS X El Capitan that helps prevent potentiallymalicious software from modifying protected files and folders on your Mac.In OS X, the “root” user account previously had no permission restrictions and could access any system folder orapplication on your Mac. Software gained root-level access when you entered your administrator name andpassword to install it and could then modify or overwrite any system file or application.System Integrity Protection uses sandboxing technology to restrict the root account and limit actions that it canperform on protected parts of OS X.Paths and applications protected by System Integrity Protection include: /System /usr /bin /sbin Apps that are preinstalled with OS XPaths and applications that third-party apps and installers can write to include: /Applications /Library /usr/localProtected parts of OS X can be modified only by processes that are signed by Apple and have special entitlementsto write to system files, like Apple software updates and Apple installers.Apps that you download from the Mac App Store already work with System Integrity Protection. Other third-partysoftware that conflicts with System Integrity Protection might be set aside when you upgrade to OS X El Capitan.System Integrity Protection also helps prevent software from changing your startup volume. To start up your Macfrom a different volume, you can use the Startup Disk pane in System Preferences or hold down the Option keywhile you restart, and select a volume from the list.Automatic security featuresOS X offers a multilayered defense system against viruses and other malicious apps, or malware, with virtually noeffort on your part. For example, through a technique called “sandboxing,” OS X prevents hackers from harmingyour programs. Sandboxing restricts what actions programs can perform on your Mac, what files they can access,and what other programs they can launch.Mac Integration Basics 10.11 Adding a Mac to a Windows or Other Standards-Based Network20

Other automatic security features include Library Randomization, which keeps malicious commands from findingtheir targets, and Execute Disable, which protects the memory in your Mac from attacks.Creating strong passwordsTo prevent your password from being cracked, make it strong. Once someone has your password, that person hasaccess to your Mac, files, email, and organizational data. The password you choose must be strong because you useit to install software, set up accounts, access Keychain, and log in to your Mac. It’s easy to create a strong password.Your password should have the following attributes: At least eight characters At least one uppercase and one lowercase letter At least one number At least one punctuation mark or symbolFor example, L1quid m0ke is a good password because it’s a long, uncommon phrase that has letters replaced byspecial characters and numbers.Note: Use these suggestions for your iCloud password, too.OS X features Password Assistant,which checks your password strength or generates a strong password for you.You can tell Password Assistant what password type and length you’d like it to create. You can choose thesepassword types:Manual You enter a password, then Password Assistant ranks the strength of the password on a sliding scale. If thepassword is weak, Password Assistant offers tips for increasing quality.Memorable You adjust the password Length setting, then Password Assistant generates a list of memorablepasswords that contain words from a dictionary and some random characters, for example, “wept1]puller.”Letters & Numbers You adjust the password Length setting, then Password Assistant generates a list of passwordswith a combination of letters and numbers, for example, “tSFCF4lLh2yc.”Numbers Only You adjust the password Length setting, then Password Assistant generates a list of passwordscontaining only numbers, for example, “007515850186.”Random You adjust the password Length setting, then Password Assistant generates a list of passwords containingrandom characters, for example, “)RO{AFKTDc\0.”FIPS-181 compliant You adjust the password Length setting, then Password Assistant generates a password that isFIPS-181 compliant, for example, “cdavicourgok.”To use Password Assistant to create a password:1.Open System Preferences.2.Click Users & Groups.3.Select a user.4.Click Change Password.5.Click Change Password again.Mac Integration Basics 10.11 Adding a Mac to a Windows or Other Standards-Based Network21

6.Click the Key () to the right of the “New password” field.This opens Password Assistant.7.From the Type pop-up menu, choose the password type that meets your organizational security standards.8.To choose the number of characters you want for an automatically generated password, move the Lengthslider to the left or right.9.Close the Password Assistant pane.10. Click Change Password.Using two-factor authenticationIn OS X El Capitan, you can use two-factor authentication to prevent unauthorized access to your account. First,specify a trusted device or phone number. A four- or six-digit code will then be sent to this device or phonenumber so that you can confirm your identity. Without both a password and a four- or six-digit code, you can’taccess your account.After you set up your trusted devices, you must verify your identity with your password and a six-digitauthentication code whenever you sign in with your Apple ID on a new device or browser.
