Jay Beale - Linux Guru (Information Security Magazine)

Jay Beale has a new column called Linux Guru in Information Security Magazine. The first one attempts to answer the questions, "How can I determine if my Linux server has been hacked? How can I be sure that I haven't been hacked?" "Really, the secret is to avoid compromise. Harden systems before deployment, keep up with patches, and design a strong host and network architecture. Then start building your own digital and human baselines to make intrusion detection easier. It's a bit of upfront work, but it's less hassle than recovering from a bad compromise later."
