The Linux Security Auditing Tool (LSAT) is a post install
security auditor for Linux/Unix. It checks many system configurations
and local network settings on the system for common security/config
errors and for packages that are not needed. 
It (for now) works under Linux (x86: Gentoo, RedHat, Debian, Mandrake;
Sparc: SunOS (2.x), Redhat sparc, Mandrake Sparc; Apple OS X)

NEWS:
12/07/2018:
Been a while since I have updated, but there are a few bugfixes
that were added. Also, distros are moving things around, and the code
was getting behind. A number of items in that regard were fixed. 
Coming soon, new network checks in early 2019.
Check the changelog for more details.

NOTE a few books on ethical hacking and computer security mention LSAT.

NOTE: This is merely an auditing tool, and does not impose
any form of security on the box itself. I take no responsibility
for its use/reliability/blah/blah. Again:
This software does not modify anything (yet) to make your box more secure, 
it is an auditor. It will report possible security flaws in the configuration
of the system.

Special note: Please email me with bugs and the like.
Also, please email me with suggestions, etc. It is your input
which will make this software better. Thanks.
