I am looking for a Linux security portal in English language. The meaning of Linux security portal is : "A portal which only talks about Linux security. The portal contains various services like latest news, mailing list, links to other sites, various white papers and documents, etc." Definition of Portal: A portal is a Web Super site that serves as a gateway to the Internet. Portals provide many services including Web searching, news, online shopping, telephone directories, free e-mail, discussion groups, chat rooms, instant messenger, free personal home pages, address books, maps/directions, directories or content channels, personalization, classified ads, calendars, specialty searches, communities or clubs of people who share common interests, and links to other sites. These portals are horizontal because they provide information, news, and e-commerce on a wide variety of topics and appeal to a very broad audience. A portal could contain static pages as well as pages which are shown using a database (involving programming) like search, chat, emails etc. Portals are not so much a technological phenomenon as a method of categorizing and organizing information for easy navigation. They are particularly beneficial for novice or timid web explorers. A Vertical Industry Portal, or vortal, as it is commonly known, is a Web portal that provides information, resources and services for a specific profession, industry, hobby, or personal interest. Some vortals provide online seminars and forums that allow users to interact and learn from one another. > -----Original Message----- > From: lan-x [mailto:lan-x@lan-x.net] > Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 2:52 PM > To: security-discuss@linuxsecurity.com > Subject: Re: Security Portals > > > Linuxsecurity.com is FAR from the only one.
