Although Linux users do not have to work as hard as Windows users in terms of security protection, as Sony's CEO, skingge, is helpless: security services are a work that will never stop. Fedora is a free Linux system developed from Red Hat Linux, one of the many Linux releases. The latest version of Fedora will be officially released on the 24th. It is understood that Fedora 15 will make innovative security changes.

"When users install and log on, we adopt a better security encryption directory. Of course, it will be a long process to help users improve data security ." Said Jared Smith, Project Leader of Fedora.

Smith pointed out that in addition to encryption, Fedora 15 will also adopt a new dynamic firewall technology, which is one of his favorite new features.

"Most users use the IP address filtering packet firewall, but the problem is that when you change the firewall, if you do not reload the entire wall, it is difficult to immediately intercept (on-the-fly ). Fedora 15 is the first operating system that truly uses the dynamic protective wall technology. This technology can ensure that the Firewall runs properly, add or modify rules in real time, and get the anti-feedback of the firewall ." Smith said.

Dynamic firewall can not only set inbound communication rules, but also dynamically adjust outbound packets.

"Another highlight of Fedora is that we set a firewall interface for it to enable communication between a single application and the firewall. This application will open the port for a period of time to the firewall and close it when the communication ends ."

"Dynamic firewall technology ensures that individuals or programs dynamically handle any requirements of various network events while communicating freely. Therefore, any secure process can say to the firewall: Hey, open a door for me ."
