Optimize Linux security with Red Hat
Not all Linux distributions approach security the same way
In the world of IT infrastructure security, new threats emerge daily and compliance regulations are continuously added. Standardizing on a security-focused foundation is essential to safeguarding applications, processes, and workloads. While all Linux® distributions are rooted in open source, each takes a different approach to security.
When choosing a Linux distribution to standardize on, it is important to consider how well prepared you will be to mitigate new risks and meet the latest requirements. How are the distribution’s security capabilities developed? How efficiently can you apply the distribution’s protections in your environments? How will the distribution support and enhance your security posture beyond the point of sale, to safeguard your infrastructure from emerging threats now and into the future?
As a hardened operating system (OS) rooted in over 30 years of Linux experience, offered by a technology leader trusted by more than 90% of Fortune 500 organizations,2 Red Hat® Enterprise Linux extends a defense in depth security strategy to solution development, configuration and management, and support. This overview explores how each of these elements contribute to a strong security posture, and work together to form a trusted, security-focused OS.
