"Red Hat, Caldera and SGI have announced that they will integrate
Tripwire into their Linux-based solutions. The aim of the integration is to
provide Linux applications with greater security and make Linux a more
robust OS for e-business."
"Tripwire is a product that monitors variances in file integrity to
ensure system security. It reportedly determines if a protected file has
been altered in a way that violates the policy set by the administrator. It
also discovers if files have been added to or deleted from protected
directories."
"In the event that someone has hacked into the system, Tripwire should
have a full report of when it happened and what files were altered or
erased."
