Some of us were at the HP Linux Forum here in Helsinki last thursday and saw some nice presentations. The topics circled around the usage of Open Source Software in projects, JBoss, Red Hat, Xen virtualization, and Linux services offered by HP, quite naturally.

It was nice to hear that the discussion on Linux and Open Source isn’t anymore about if they are ready to do this and that, but rather how to take most out of them and how to migrate your existing systems into Open Source platforms.

We have just released version 5.52 of our Server Security (70 MB evaluation download) and Client Security (69 MB evaluation download). This release was mainly prompted by some issues discovered when running our product on Turbolinux, a popular Japanese Linux distribution and hence an important target platform for us. Also, in light of our recent security advisory FSC-2007-1, we would like to encourage all users to upgrade to the latest versions. Note that the latest version of F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper for Linux is affected: download the latest build here.
