Linux Intrusion Detection System 1.0.14 for 2.4.9 (2.4.x) by Huagang Xie (http://freshmeat.net/users/xhg/) Saturday, August 18th 2001 14:54 Categories: Security, System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux About: The Linux Intrusion Detection System (LIDS) is a patch which enhances the kernel's security by implementing a reference monitor and Mandatory Access Control (MAC). When it is in effect, chosen file access, all system/network administration operations, any capability use, raw device, memory, and I/O access can be made impossible even for root. You can define which programs can access specific files. It uses and extends the system capabilities bounding set to control the whole system and adds some network and filesystem security features to the kernel to enhance the security. You can finely tune the security protections online, hide sensitive processes, receive security alerts through the network, and more. Changes: This version has been updated to the newest kernel 2.4.9. The LIDS_TIME_ITEM has been changed to 2, and you can specify the timescale up to 2 pairs now. This version also has some code cleanup to delete the debugging info which appeared on system bootup.
