Managed to bump myself into this fine document while reading Fedora 11′s (12 coming out in 5 days with IPV6? Schweet!) documentation. This document (I believe) was meant to lay out a concise, yet complete, overview of security in a Linux environment. Yet, as I read it more, it seems to cover many basic tutorials and prevention techniques applicable to any Operating Systems! Sure, some specific tools or tricks are meant for Fedora core only, but with a little bit of effort, even a MS Windows home user can learn a thing or two.

All in all, it’s a good read if you’re interested in computer security and would like to know more than what a DoS stands for in terms of a hack, or you’re not sure whether turning off the encryption in your wireless network at home is a good idea or not.
