Bastille Linux

Bastille Linux is a best-of-breed hardening script for Red Hat Linux 6.x and derivative distributions. Conceived of as a living, executable 'best practices' document of security policies, Bastille Linux is highly configurable and its actions are easily automated. This talk will briefly discuss the history of Bastille Linux and then proceed, step-by-step, through the changes that Bastille Linux can make to your system to improve its security.

What Do You Do After You Get Hacked?

Sooner or later, any system offering public services is going to be compromised. Our network and its Linux servers have not been exceptions to this rule. Restoring the backup is not enough. Technical measures to prevent a repeat need to be taken. How do you find out how the hackers came into your system in the first place? What tools are out there to help you further secure the machine. How do you maintain all the software involved? And what measures can be taken to trace down the hackers. And once they are traced down, what can you expect from the other parties involved?

Surprise talk: Linux Intrusion Detection System
