Disable RDS (Not Scored)
The Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) protocol is a transport layer protocol designed to provide low-latency, high-bandwidth communications between cluster nodes. It was developed by the Oracle Corporation.
Parameter:
[enable/disable]
Technical Mechanism:
If the protocol is not being used, it is recommended that kernel module not be loaded, disabling the service to reduce the potential attack surface.
Fix:
"# echo ""install rds /bin/true"" >> /etc/modprobe.d/CIS.conf"
