    摘要: A computer system to prevent intervention and falsification by setting encrypted transfer between a host computer and a first storage device that provides a virtual volume and between the first storage device and second and third storage devices that provide a real volume corresponding to the virtual volume. A management computer specifies the second and third storage device that provide the real volume corresponding to the virtual volume by providing a volume corresponding to the virtual volume used by a host computer in which encrypted transfer becomes necessary, and setting the encrypted transfer to communication between the first storage device and the second and third storage devices, makes a reconnection thereof, and also sets the encrypted transfer to an I/O port used for the communication with the host computer in the first storage device.

    摘要: In order to remove security vulnerability in an IP-SAN and eliminate unauthorized access by spoofing, firewalls are installed in valid user servers and storage devices, and a distributed firewall manager for managing the firewalls integrally is provided in the IP-SAN. The distributed firewall manager obtains discovery domain information from an iSNS server, determines nodes registered in the iSNS server as the nodes of valid users, and autocreates a security policy according to sets consisting of an iSCSI name and portal information. This security policy is distributed to all of the firewalls as a common policy, whereupon access control is executed to deny TCP connection requests from unauthorized access sources.

    摘要: Disclosed is to prevent deterioration in I/O performance of a computer resulted from a use of the same physical disk among different logical volumes. A volume management server 1010 groups together logical volumes which use the same physical disk of a storage device 1020 as a volume group and allocates a storage area on the physical disk to be used on a priority basis by this volume group to the volume group, and thereby a physical arrangement according to a present physical arrangement of the logical volume can be performed when an automatic expansion of the logical volume is performed thereafter so that the I/O performance deterioration of the computer caused by a mutual interference is avoided at the time of access from the computer 1030 to the storage device 1020.

    摘要: A check rule for assuring system security is generated. A communication information monitoring apparatus includes a pseudo-client, a monitoring unit, and a unification unit. The pseudo-client transmits a request message containing a trace value as a parameter to a web application and analyzes a response message returned from the web application. The monitoring unit monitors whether the trace value transmitted by the pseudo-client is used in various positions in the system. The unification unit generates a check rule according to the processing result of the pseudo-client and the monitoring unit and a check policy registered in advance. The check policy contains the parameter use purpose and the process for the check processing.

    摘要: In a data center architecture or the like, the present invention provides a method for setting up hosting environments concurrently by loading a boot image by means of network boot or the like, allowing for fast booting even with a large boot image, while preserving security. A boot image is divided into a plurality of parts. Computer resources have their public keys stored in their BIOS ROMs and e-signatures are attached to the boot image parts with a private key corresponding to one of the public keys. Also, priority levels in e-signature verification are assigned to the boot image parts. A boot instruction includes priority level setting. Only for boot image parts with that priority level or higher, e-signature verification is performed. By this manner, booting can be performed faster than booting involving verification of the e-signature to a whole boot image.
