Security :: Run Intrusion Detection System On Regularly Updated Desktop?
Apr 1, 2010My desktop (the system AIDE runs on) is reguarly updated, and the file output can become enormous, making it hard, if not impossible, to track down out of place files. I have recently thought of uninstalling it since I can't tell what is out of place and what isn't, but before I do that I wanted to ask everyones opinion regarding what would be the best way to handle such a program on a desktop that has some core files changed reguarly. This sytem is running Gentoo, so updates affect a number of directories.

Mar 11, 2010Is an ubuntu live cd totally secure from intrusion? Stated another way, even if someone knows my ip address, can the live cd environment be hacked into in any way so that another could monitor what I am doing on my computer? From my understanding the live cd is read only, so that would prevent anything malicious being installed on it. I am curious if there are other ways a box running a live cd could be tapped into.

Aug 30, 2010the following security alert made me checking my httpd.conf:
Code:
Summary:
SELinux is preventing the http daemon from reading users' home directories. Detailed Description: SELinux has denied the http daemon access to users' home directories. Someone is attempting to access your home directories via your http daemon. If you have not setup httpd to share home directories, this probably signals an intrusion attempt. Even though in httpd.conf there is a line that reads

LoadModule userdir_module modules/mod_userdir.so

Ubuntu Security :: Vulnerable To Infection From Website Without A "proxy Antivirus Filter"?
Dec 15, 2010I used Avast webfilter (proxied webtraffic through Avast) when running Windows. Sometimes Avast would alert and "protect" me from being infected by a compromised website. NOTE: Avast would alert even absent clicking any links. Just viewing the page could result in infection. Should I be running some kind of proxy webfilter for protection? My understanding is that Firefox can be compromised and this can in turn compromise Ubuntu.Are these kinds of threats specific to Windows running Firefox, or Firefox per se. If Firefox per se it seems like I need some sort of Proxy webfiltering like Avast provides.
