Category: Misc.

Title: Clock accuracy checker (via HTTP)

Summary: NOSUMMARY

Description: Description:

The system time could be determined via the http
protocol on this server. You should ensure that
the system clock is regularly synchronized so that
your event logs and web server logs have accurate

very difficult to investigate problems such as
attacks that must be coordinated with other systems
and other administrators.

Solution : Employ an automated time synchronization
utility using ntp.

Risk factor : Low
