Recommendations are based on Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) created and maintained by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for Rocky Linux. […]

Reading Time: 2 minutesAfter only few months from Linux Kernel 6.12, Linus Torvalds announced today the release and general availability of Linux kernel 6.13, the latest stable version of the Linux kernel (available on kernel.org) that introduces several new features and improvements.  It’s mostly some final driver fixes (gpu and networking dominating –normal), with some doc updates too.
