Please check ibm redbooks.

http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/

and do a search on security and aix
but i think the best way is to protect your aix systems with a firewal

IBMs AIX securing guide is called "Elements of Security"
or you can browse cert.org for patches of known security vulnerabilities

or read securityfocus

or search google for AIX or UNIX security

There is a very new Redbook on security. The best thing is to keep bad people off of your LAN, though. I'd like to get that message through to upper management. Software security only slows me (any my coworkers), it doesn't stop us.
