Just published the #ASG2024 schedule! Lots of good stuff, and at least one terrible talk that nobody should attend.
Early bird tickets are also still available - but not for long - go grab them while they last!
It's been a while since the last one, but here is the fourth #Landlock newsletter: https://lore.kernel.org/landlock/20240716.yui4Iezai8ae@digikod.net/
Moar sandboxing! 🥳
Another relatively small update, but here are the LSM, SELinux, and audit* highlights from the Linux v6.11 merge window.

There are three hard things in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and getting your video game character onto a ladder.
Of course, everyone's favourite tool to build secure Linux images with dm-verity, TPM, SecureBoot is mkosi by @daandemeyer and others. It now is learning a new trick: support for AzureLinux (ex CBL Mariner) – in addition to the other 12 supported distributions.
And that's really great, because this means I can finally quickly test the stuff I am working on within the systemd project on my own company's Linux distribution, the same way I test other distributions.
Yay!
