Hardening Linux against buffer overflowsHardening Linux against buffer overflowsPosted May 8, 2003 16:27 UTC (Thu) by smoogen (subscriber, #97)In reply to: Hardening Linux against buffer overflows by brouhaha Parent article: Hardening Linux against buffer overflows When I have run into similar stances, and asked for clarification it is that too many people get caught up that the lock on the door will protect them completely. [For a real world example look at the run of Duct-Tape and Plastic sheeting in various US cities... the realities are that they would help some people but for most are placebos.] To summarize, some of us know that it will help a bit when used with other software contraceptives... but the majority of computer users will think it is the end-all and be-all of security.
