[Posted July 21, 2004 by cook]

The Kernel Summit had a session on security which should be interest to readers of this page, even if you don't usually follow the kernel page. James Morris led the session and noted that a great many security features have found their way into 2.6; including the Linux security module mechanism, the crypto API, the dm-crypt target, IPSec, SELinux, NX bit support, the audit framework, and more.
