| LIDS ( Linux Intrusion Detection System) is a Linux kernel patch and admin tools(lidsadm) to enhance the the Linus kernel. It implements a security model -- reference model -- in the kernel and a Mandatory Access Control model in the kernel. In this article, we will talk about the LIDS including what it can do and how to use it to build a secure Linux system. |
While Im not a sysadmin for a network, Ive been very interested in setting up such systems on my desktop machine (probably not worth the effort, but a great learning experience!!).
Has anyone got much experience with LIDS? Im dreading the patchin' and recompilin' but again, will be a great learning experience!

I have used it before, it wasn't easy to get a system setup and secure but once you have an image with it integrated into it you can just copy it as a starting point for other servers. I think it has matured quite a bit since I last used it too.
Also check out NSA's secure linux, great product.
