Audience
Who needs to secure their Linux systems? Arguably, anybody who has
one connected to a network. This book should therefore be useful both
for the Linux hobbyist with a web server in the basement and for the
consultant who audits large companies' enterprise
systems.Obviously, the stakes and the scale differ greatly for those two
types of users, but the problems, risks, and threats they need to
consider have much in common. The same buffer overflow that can be
used to "root" a host running
"Foo-daemon Version X.Y.Z" is just
as much of a threat to a 1,000-host network with 50 Foo-daemon
servers as it is to a 5-host network with one.This book is addressed, therefore, to all Linux system
administratorswhether they administer 1 or 100 networked Linux
servers, and whether they run Linux for love or for money. |
