Review: UNIX Privilege Manager

Review: UNIX Privilege Manager

In the Unix world, anyone who knows the root password has access to the root account. This gives them complete control, as there is no way to delegate specific privileges.

The next generation is here

I recently attended the graduation of the latest class of Norwich University's Master of Science in Information Assurance program. It was one of the high points of my lengthy career. In the spirit of full disclosure, I've been teaching in this program, for mid-career adults, since its inception. This was the second graduation in the 18-month program.
