“2. The Biggest Security Risks are Internal – As any
good security expert will tell you, most security issues arise from
inside a corporate network not from the outside. Most port scans,
virus attacks, hacks, password stealing, and stolen data occurs
from within your own ranks. Linux Administrators have the advantage
of using a Unix Operating System that is inherently secure by
virtue of the limited ability of users to damage the system. Local
users still pose the biggest security threats to a system through
the download and use of rootkits, port scanners, and password crack
programs.”
