Endpoint Detection and Response added. For servers, not standalone Linux desktops, mind

After a few months in preview, Microsoft has made Defender Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) generally available for Linux servers.
Microsoft has extended its Defender product over multiple platforms throughout the last year or so, having shaved the Windows prefix from the system. Android, macOS, and iOS have all joined the party and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint turned up for Linux around six months ago.
The theory goes that administrators with a mixed network can onboard devices via the same portal and view alerts in what Microsoft describes as a single pane of glass experience .
Community Concerns Prompt Red Hat to Drop CentOS for CentOS Stream According to Red Hat, CentOS is being ditched for CentOS Stream because it was not actually providing that much usefulness to Red Hat.
Red Hat s decision earlier to stop development of the Linux distribution CentOS to concentrate on CentOS Stream has created a brouhaha on social media. That s because it has IT pros who are dependent on the popular server operating system scurrying to figure how best to replace it now that Red Hat and the CentOS board have announced that at the end of 2021, CentOS as a Red Hat Enterprise Linux clone will cease to exist.
Big Red: This is not some gimmick so that you buy support from us

In the wake of Red Hat s decision to end support for CentOS Linux comes a raft of alternatives to fill the void, including Project Lenix - an offshoot of Cloud Linux - and Oracle s free Linux, which Big Red is heavily promoting.
CloudLinux is a distribution based on RHEL/CentOS aimed at hosting providers and enterprises. It is not free but is offered on subscription from $14.00 per month, with support from $3.95 per month. Now the company behind it has introduced Project Lenix as an open-sourced and community-driven RHEL Fork by the CloudLinux OS Creators .
OK, actually, they re fit to be tied. That s because millions of users have been using CentOS as a stable point distribution for their servers, virtual machines, and appliances.
These aren t just small businesses. Top companies that rely on CentOS Linux include Disney, GoDaddy, RackSpace, Toyota, and Verizon. Other important technology companies build products around CentOS. These include GE, Riverbed, F5, Juniper, and Fortinet.
What can these and all the other companies which use CentOS every day do? They can look at alternative Linux distributions. According to a CloudLinux survey, most CentOS users, 60.5%, are waiting for a CentOS fork to be released. Of the rest, 16.7% are looking to Debian Linux, 12.4% are considering Ubuntu, while 10.4% are thinking about openSUSE.
