TechWeb summarizes the recent articles they have published on security Linux distributions including EnGarde, the Editor's Choice, HP Secure Linux and Immunix. " IT pros navigating a minefield of insecure software and systems are finding safe ground in Linux. That's because the open-source operating system--in part due to its very openness--has become a model of security. For one thing, Linux benefits from its similarities to Unix, long considered the most bulletproof operating system. Once hardened, Unix is nearly impenetrable--and much of this security translates nicely to Linux. For another, Linux has a global community of programmers continually evaluating the source code. That kind of scrutiny means flaws are typically discovered very quickly. And now, a new government initiative promises to make things even better. The Sardonix Audit Portal, funded by the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (the same organization that bankrolled the predecessor to the Internet), aims to be the one-stop site for organizing the efforts of critical Linux code reviewers everywhere. There's even good news on the product front: Network Computing recently reviewed a host of Linux security products, and found most of them to be just what the penguin ordered."

TechWeb highlights secure Linux distributions, showcasing Tails for privacy and Qubes OS for security, plus the importance of community-driven kernel security and regular updates. secure linux distributions, government security initiatives, open source security. .
