Ubuntu security improvements over the past two years |
|
The Ubuntu distribution and its community editions were front-and-centre in the news in the second half of the week. While most eyes turn to new features and updated desktop environments, Mondoo placed a spotlight on Ubuntu's new security features and improvements since Ubuntu 22.04. "In the mere two years since the previous LTS release of Ubuntu shipped, the technology landscape has changed in profound ways. Because we’ve seen an explosion of ransomware attacks and critical Linux CVEs, it’s more important than ever to secure Linux systems. Thankfully, the industry has responded with a focus on security in Linux core components. That emphasis makes Ubuntu 24.04 perhaps the most important Ubuntu release ever for those concerned with securing their systems. We’ve combed through various Linux project changelogs, Debian package maintainer mailing lists, and piles of pages on Canonical's Launchpad system to bring you a definitive list of everything new in security in Ubuntu 24.04." The blog post goes on to list improvements to security in networking, the kernel, access control, and migrations against CPU attacks. |
