Microsoft's dropped feature is Linux's gain

Companies usually spend time and money developing new and interesting features
to drive upgrades, but Microsoft is taking a different approach with the "Vail"
release of Windows Home Server (WHS): It's dropping the popular Drive Extender
feature that lets users "pool" hard drives to increase storage.

http://linuxducks.webs.com/apps/blog/show/5216825-case-harden-linux-security

I would like to post for windows users security doubters one simple security
ware idea available for Linux, and invite you to read the product description as
available security to really "case harden" your Linux....

AppArmor description
http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Security/
Linux application security framework

AppArmor is a software that gives you network application security via mandatory
access control for programs, protecting against the exploitation of software
flaws and compromised systems.

AppArmor is an effective and easy-to-use Linux application security system.
AppArmor proactively protects the operating system and applications from
external or internal threats, even zero-day attacks, by enforcing good behavior
and preventing even unknown application flaws from being exploited.

AppArmor security policies completely define what system resources individual
applications can access, and with what privileges. A number of default policies
are included with AppArmor, and using a combination of advanced static analysis
and learning-based tools, AppArmor policies for even very complex applications
can be deployed successfully in a matter of hours.
