Fedora Security Spin

Wiki Page Purpose
This page follows the Spins_Process. The Development Home can be found at https://pagure.io/security-lab

Summary

The Fedora Security Spin is a livecd based on Fedora to provide a safe test-environment for working on security-auditing, forensics and penetration-testing, coupled with all the Fedora-Security features and tools.

Owner(s)

Quality Assurance: Athmane Madjoudj

Former Owner(s): Luke Macken, Adam John Miller, Christoph Wickert, Hiemanshu Sharma, Joerg Simon

Detailed Description

The spin is maintained by a community of Security Testers and Developers. It comes with the clean and fast Xfce Desktop Enviroment and a customized menu to have all the instruments one may need to follow a proper test-path on security testing[1]or to rescue a broken system. With the read-write rootfs, it is possible to install software while the livecd is running. The Fedora liveusb-creator provides an overlay feature to put the security-spin on an usb-stick so that the user can install and update software - and can save his test-results permanently.

Benefit to Fedora

Covered by the above description
A stable platform for teaching security along security classes in universities and organisations like the ISECOM
- People learn about Fedora through these classes
Showcase for security features and testing
A toolset for proper security testing
A complete repair/rescue system - with tools not contained on the other LiveCDs to rescue your System
Gather interested people to package new tools for this spin
Cool marketing instrument and a story to tell
There are industry partners who are interested to contribute
and also contained in this presentation SecuritySpin and the OSSTMM
