we use certificate based 802.1x authentication in our environment, and we deliver the certificate and system-level 802.1x profile using a configuration profile. This method of installing the certificate does not prevent exportation of the private key when running 10.7 or 10.8. Has anyone found a way to protect the private key when using a config profile on those OS's?

We have peculiar instance where some users do not have recovery partition. A direct result of a poorly deployed OS disk image without a recovery partition. We have resolved this issue for new deployment sung Casper. How can we deploy File Vault 2 for these users without a recovery partition?

If not possible, can that partition be injected?

I referenced a few things that are available on GitHub during today's session:

The current version of my XProtect management script for Java browser plug-in settings is available here - https://github.com/rtrouton/rtrouton_scripts/tree/master/rtrouton_scripts/xprotect_re-enable_java_6_...

Blog post that describes how the XProtect management script works:

One other thing I referenced during the panel discussion was editing the /etc/sudoers file to remove the ability of all users with administrative privileges to use sudo. The general idea is that the entry for %admin be removed from /etc/sudoers, as that's referencing the admin group on the machine.

Instead, specify the usernames that should have sudo privileges:

If a user needs to have sudo privileges, add their username to the /etc/sudoers file on the appropriate machine.

Here is the feature request to have an option built into Casper for the fdesetup -authrestart in case anyone would like to vote it up.
