Additional Security in the Linux Kernel?

Posted by Cliff on from the going-beyond-ugo dept.

nyx asks: "Recently, I was looking for some way to improve security on my linux boxes. I found few linux patches like grsecurity, LIDS (now also as Linux Security Module), Medusa DS9. I'm testing grsecurity (and it's ACLs) now and I'm quite satisfied with it, but I wonder, what are pros and cons of other solutions. Anybody tried them and can share his experience with us?"

    Dude,

    We know you are a 45 year old man who sits in his cube and giggles quietly every time he wonders what others would think if they new he ordered his under-wear from Fredericks.

    Don't try to pull the wool over our eyes.

    There is something almost treasonous about a linux kernel hack whose documentation's primary format is msword+ppt. Particularly when the html links are broken.
