SEATTLE, WA -- During the recent LinuxWorld Conference & Expo held in New York's Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, the Linux Journal staff experienced a serious miscommunication and made an erroneous announcement. Linux Journal did not win the Best Publication award as previously announced. We should like to correct this mistake, and offer sincere apologies.

Best Publication was not a category in the popular Show Favorites Awards program of LinuxWorld Conference & Expo, owned and produced by IDG World Expo. We also reported the winners were chosen by show attendees. The winners, however, were selected by a panel of industry experts who recognized product and service innovation and solutions in open computing being offered by exhibitors.

We appreciate the community's continued support of Linux Journal.

Built-in forensics, incident response, and security with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
