Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] how do I keep my devil secure

[Heiko Z. <he...@zu...>]

We don't really have anybody dedicated so watching security holes.
If a bad one shows up, we usually try to update DL withing a couple days
and release a new version.

Most security holes don't affect us, others are being secured by grsecurity.

The best way to stay secure is to stay on the latest version.
