Harness the Power of SELinux -
Tresys Brickwall™ Security Suite Now Available for Fedora 7
Powerful Tool for Managing SELinux Gets Additional Features and Wider Platform Support
Columbia,
Maryland–August 6, 2007 – Tresys Technology, a leader in security technology innovation
and services and a primary contributor to Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux), today announced the release of its Tresys BrickwallTM
Professional Edition for Fedora 7 – making SELinux easy to use on the latest Fedora platform.
SELinux, the best Linux security technology available, provides a rich set of security functions, but IT
administrators often lack the expertise needed to effectively configure and leverage these capabilities. The Tresys Brickwall Security Suite
builds upon leading-edge open source technologies to provide unmatched control over these powerful SELinux security functions — without
requiring special knowledge of the SELinux policy language. Tresys Brickwall allows effective use of SELinux by any Linux administrator
without the need for extensive training or costly consulting resources.
Tresys Brickwall Professional Edition v1.1 for Fedora 7 is Available Free of Charge
The Tresys Brickwall Security Suite includes
three editions – Standard, Professional, and Enterprise – to meet varying levels of
end-user needs. With Tresys Brickwall, administrators now have
unmatched ability to configure, customize, and extend the security
controls provided by SELinux. With the Enterprise
edition, administrators can apply enhanced security across an entire
enterprise, allowing administrators to configure SELinux for groups of
systems, and apply and monitor this security remotely from a single management console. Key features of
the suite include the ability to define network access settings for
individual programs, built-in protection for many applications and
services, customization of network and file protection settings, and
the ability to create custom policy targets for new applications.
The Tresys Brickwall Security Suite supports Fedora Core 6 and Fedora 7 along with
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5 on x86 and IBM Power Series hardware.
