Building Secure Servers with Linux will help you master the principles of reliable system and network security by combining practical advice with a firm knowledge of the technical tools needed to ensure security. The book focuses on the most common use of Linux–as a hub offering services to an organization or the larger Internet. The book does not cover firewalls, but covers the more common situation where an organization protects its hub using other systems as firewalls, often proprietary firewalls. Writing for Linux users with little security expertise, the author explains security concepts and techniques in clear language beginning with the fundamentals. An all-inclusive resource for Linux users who wish to harden their systems, the book covers general security as well as key services such as DNS, the Apache Web server, mail, file transfer, and secure shell. With this book in hand, you’ll have everything you need to ensure robust security of your Linux system.
