Wow, the list has been quiet this weekend.

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a meeting about linux security?  I was thinking we could start the meeting with a short class in how to secure a default install (turning off services, turning on SSH, enabling firewall).  Do a short class in security assessment (how to use NMAP and other tools like NESSUS or SAINT).  Finally play a game of "Capture the Flag".  Take the newly secured box and a default install and hack into them.  Therefore showing users how much harder it is to break into the secured box than the default install.  Maybe we could get some of the 2600 guys to come and help out with that portion.

I have always felt that by actually showing someone that you really can crack their system they take security much more serious.

Is anyone interested?
