Linux networks are becoming more and more common,
but scurity is often an overlooked
issue. Unfortunately, in today’s environment all networks
are potential hacker targets,
fro0m tp-secret military research networks to small home LANs.
Linux Network Securty focuses on securing Linux in a
networked environment, where the
security of the entire network needs to be considered
rather than just isolated machines.
It uses a mix of theory and practicl techniques to
teach administrators how to install and
use security applications, as well as how the
applcations work and why they are necesary.
