Configure, local security policy (LSP) for windows servers.
LSP is key to a baseline configuration of the following security features:
- Password Policy
- Account Lockout Policy
- Audit Policy
- User Rights Assignment
- Security Options
- Registry Values
This module uses types and providers to list, update, validate settings
The title and name of the resources is exact match of what is in secedit GUI. If you are uncertain of the setting name and values just user 'resource' to pipe them all into a file and make adjustments as necessary. The block will look like this
local_security_policy { 'Audit account logon events': <- Title / Name
ensure => present, <- Always present
policy_setting => "AuditAccountLogon", <- The secedit file key. Informational purposes only, not for use in manifest definitions
policy_type => "Event Audit", <- The secedit file section, Informational purposes only, not for use in manifest definitions
policy_value => 'Success,Failure', <- Values
}

The local_security_policy works by using secedit /export
to export a list of currently set policies. The module will then
take the user defined resource and compare the values against the exported policies. If the values on the system do not match
the defined resource, the module will run secedit /configure
to configure the policy on the system. If the policy already
exists on the system no change will be made.
In order to make setting these polices easier, this module has extracted some of the difficult to lookup or remember pieces
of a policy and placed them in a map for easy translation and value conversion. This means that you only need to remember the user
instead of the sid value, as well as the policy description instead of the special key that needs to be set. The mappings
below define how this translation works. If there is no map for your policy you will need to add to lib/puppet_x/lsp/security_policy.rb
'Accounts: Rename administrator account' => {
:name => 'NewAdministratorName',
:policy_type => 'System Access',
:data_type => :quoted_string
},
'Recovery console: Allow floppy copy and access to all drives and all folders' => {
:name => 'MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Setup\RecoveryConsole\SetCommand',
:reg_type => '4',
:policy_type => 'Registry Values',
},
The key Accounts: Rename administrator account
in the first hash is what the user will define as the name in the resource name.
Instead of remembering the policy name, the description will help us remember what the policy is for. When defining new policy
maps you will need to define the key, name, policy_type, and optionally, data_type or reg_type.
Currently for data_type there is only :quoted_string
. However, for reg_type(integer value) there are many values which are listed below:
REG_NONE 0
REG_SZ 1
REG_EXPAND_SZ 2
REG_BINARY 3
REG_DWORD 4
REG_DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN 4
REG_DWORD_BIG_ENDIAN 5
REG_LINK 6
REG_MULTI_SZ 7
REG_RESOURCE_LIST 8
REG_FULL_RESOURCE_DESCRIPTOR 9
REG_RESOURCE_REQUIREMENTS_LIST 10
REG_QWORD 11
REG_QWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN 11

- Validate users in active directory are being handled.
