#Linux security isn’t enough to stop data breaches

There is a difference between the security of an operating system and the security of the data created, which is edited and manipulated by people and saved on the operating system. Human error and insider threats are some of the top causes for data loss, which can and do still occur even in a “secure” environment.
Add to this the most recently discovered Linux vulnerabilities, and it becomes clear that organizations need to take a second look at their current setups. In addition to serving as a warning, the Glibc vulnerability and the Linux Mint hack represent an indicator that Linux is gaining more popularity among users, as well as more attention from attackers.
In this podcast recorded at RSA Conference 2016, Angela Lepadatu, Marketing Coordinator at CoSoSys, talks about why organizations need to take further steps to protect Linux setups from data breaches.
Recently, CoSoSys released Endpoint Protector DLP for Linux, enabling protection against data leakages for confidential data on organization’s Linux workstations.

This brutality not only takes place in ISIS-held territory but across most Muslim societies. All around you, you see women killed, molested, imprisoned, maimed and incarcerated while their men sugar-coat the abuse as "modesty", "honour", "divine law" or even "justice". In addition to warning would-be ISIS recruits of the horrors that await them if they jump onto the bandwagon of terrorist organizations, let us take a look into "normal" Muslim societies. Women in Saudi Arabia, in the name of laws and "traditions", are kept effectively non-existent. They are forced, outside the house to wear full-body covering,  abayas . Most full coverings for women are black, which absorbs heat, and are made of non-porous, cloth -- not cotton -- in the scorching heat. Women are also not allowed to drive, they cannot leave the house without a male guardian, they are liable to be flogged, stoned to death or beheaded if found guilty of...
