Not so well done, I was quoting from the Fedora website. It was RHEL which I found harder to discern.

Well since you were quoting from Fedora website, that's what get the attention.

http://www.redhat.com/rhel/features/ certainly talks about security features and http://www.redhat.com/security/ has more information. Is there anything in particular you were looking for?


I wasn't looking so much for security about the various products, but what their key features are, in the view of their suppliers. Security isn't the only desirable feature, or necessarily even the most desirable.

As I've already said, I'm fairly happy with RHEL-clones' security though it does bite sometimes, but security is not the top concern of either Fedora or RH.

Most (of the popular) Linux distros and the three major BSDs all do a fine job on security, _but_ not all of them are driven by that.

NetBSD, OpenBSD and Engarde Secure linux sites mention it on their home page.
