"Because security is on everyone's mind these days, our editors decided to make this year's Linux security issue extra useful," commented Carlie Fairchild, VP of Marketing & Sales. "Articles in this issue cover several areas of Linux security, such as authentication, kernel issues, intrusion detection, PHP, overall strategy, product reviews and much more. Even our renowned columns like Cooking With Linux and Focus on Software are infused with loads of useful security tools. No other publication takes Linux security as seriously as Linux Journal."

Furthermore, the October issue of will contain Linux Journal's standard articles and columns, including Paranoid Penguin, Kernel Korner, Geek Law and Best of Technical Support, as well as a recently-added section devoted to embedded Linux and many other features.
