Operating System Build Review Security Assessment

An operating system build review is a process of evaluating the configuration and components of an operating system (OS) to ensure that it is secure and meets the requirements of an organization. During an operating system build review, a team of security professionals will review the OS build, including its configuration, security settings, and installed applications, in order to identify any vulnerabilities or potential points of compromise. The review may also include testing the OS to ensure that it is functioning properly and meets the organization's requirements. The results of the operating system build review can be used to identify any issues that need to be addressed in order to improve the security of the OS, and to develop recommendations for securing the system.

This can be performed for any OS provided be it Microsoft Windows, Mac OS or Unix, to name a few. An OS build review is performed from both an authenticated and unauthenticated perspective.
