The case studies in the Security Guide are all provided with a basic chapter title of "Case Study". There's no clarity as to which chapter they represent. For readability and usability this should be updated so that both the index and document content are accurate. Change-Id: Id27f8512c26189ce9e2edbf6f605692e581bcddc Closes-Bug: 1248918

<title>Case Studies: System Documentation</title>
|

<title>Alice's Private Cloud</title>
|
||
<para>Alice needs detailed documentation to satisfy FedRamp requirements. She sets up a configuration management database (CMDB) to store information regarding all of the hardware, firmware, and software versions used throughout the cloud. She also creates a network diagram detailing the cloud architecture, paying careful attention to the security domains and the services that span multiple security domains.</para>
|
||
<para>Alice also needs to record each network service running in the cloud, what interfaces and ports it binds to, the security domains for each service, and why the service is needed. Alice decides to build automated tools to log into each system in the cloud over secure shell (SSH) using the <link xlink:href="http://fabfile.org">Python Fabric library</link>. The tools collect and store the information in the CMDB, which simplifies the audit process.</para>
