It's a battle as old as time: good vs. evil. Fortunately, Linux and FOSS are on our side as we wage the battle against those who try to steal our secrets and invade our systems.
Checking your system's security is best done sooner rather than later. Test the locks with our article on security verification; find out how to use PAM to help secure your systems; use MinorFS and AppArmor to implement discretionary access control; learn more about Samba security in part III of our series; use Darknet to help detect bots and secure your systems; use the Yubikey to increase your site's security; and don't forget to lock the doors, because a cold boot attack could render your security useless if somebody has physical access to your computer.
But, we're not just about sowing the seeds of fear. We also show you how to use memcached in Rails, how to manage multiple servers efficiently, how to deploy applications easily with Capistrano, how to manage your videos with MythVideo, how to mix it up a bit (your audio that is), and even play a few games.
Yes!

This is a very insightful comment, from a very insightful post. I'm very new to the open source community or idea, and didn't know about Apache until – of course – today. This is fantastic. I think the world at large owes a lot to the open source community without even knowing it. Open source doesn't get the publicity it should. However, true people in the community don't mind that too much – that's the risk and the sacrifice you make when you enter into this community and try to make things better for everyone. So, to all those who are involved out there : thank you!
