Linux security: Authenticate, identify, secure

Anon writes “Here’s a question for Linux systems administrators out there: Do you know what your users are up to? You probably think you do, but Kurt Lingel, the principal product architect at Sugar Land, Texas-based JME Software LLC, begs to differ.

During his LinuxWorld Conference & Expo session in San Francisco August 6-9, Lingel will discuss why you don’t know as much as you think you do when it comes to your users and their authentication. He’ll discuss a bevy of little-known Linux tools and techniques for determining user access privileges on Linux systems. Recently, Lingel sat down with SearchEnterpriseLinux.com for an interview on Linux security and the tools that administrators can use to determine who’s doing what on their systems.“
