Like isn't there redhat network security or some shit like that? So if linux already has a somewhat legacy security, why do we need to add microslop defender on top of it? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 child) No, Red Hat for the most part is not in the security game. There is OpenSCAP. Red Hat OpenShift does have Advanced Cluster Security available. But generally no Red Hat doesn't make security products like that. I guess maybe the closest would be using Satellite to manage clients and see their compliance. I don't know if Satellite can measure OpenSCAP compliance... Yes, there is a lot of security built in, but no they don't really do many explicitly security products. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Hueristic_Autistic@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago Thank you for teaching me something new. 😁 permalink fedilink source parent
