ProShield 3.8.10 (Default branch)
ProShield is a system administration/security program for Ubuntu/Debian GNU/Linux. It helps insure that your system is secure and up-to-date by checking many different aspects of your system. Whether you are a Linux novice or a system administrator with a dozen servers, ProShield is designed to be usable by all. Its main goal is to help secure a newly installed computer, as well as maintain the security of an existing machine. It's part security and part security administration.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
This release has many improvements including failsafe upgrades, bitrot fixing, repeated testing against Ubuntu Linux and Debian Linux, the ability to permanently dismiss the "source packages" question, upgrades to the primary upgrade method (resolves dependencies), and the addition of dependencies that should have been in the control file, improvements to the way reloading the SSH daemon was handled (you won't get disconnected now when you change SSHD's config), and elimination of some hang bugs (bitrot).Image
