"Three leading suppliers of Linuxsystems -- Caldera,
Red Hat, and SGI -- said they will integrate Tripwire's
intrusion detection and prevention software into their
offerings."
"Tripwire detects intruders or unauthorized changes
made to a system's key files and directories. It then
notifies users when intrusions occur on important
systems."
"Developed at Purdue University eight years ago, the
software was made commercially available last year for
Sun Solaris, IBM AIX, HP-UX, SGI's Irix, Compaq's
Tru64 Unix, and Windows NT."
"The alliances with the three Linux vendors will help
drive security further into the operating system."
