DVD OF THE MONTH

Software that is simple and secure.

Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon

This is a Linux distro for the desktop which comes with long term support (LTS) until 2021. It comes with updated software and many new features to make your desktop experience more comfortable and productive. It uses Cinnamon 3.2, which has had some visual changes that had been disabled in the past for stability reasons. The bundled DVD can boot in live mode and run Linux Mint on any 64-bit supported computer.

Fedora 25 Security Lab

The Fedora Security Lab provides a safe test environment to work on security auditing, forensics, system rescue and for teaching security testing methodologies in universities and other organisations. It comes with the clean and fast Xfce Desktop Environment and a customised menu that provides all the instruments needed to follow a proper test path for security testing or to rescue a broken system.

Peppermint 7 Respin (32-bit)

This is a lightning fast, lightweight Linux based operating system. The OS is secure, simple-to-use and customisable. Peppermint 7 is built on a long term support (LTS) code base so it can be used securely over a long period of time. Windows users are advised to use Rufus to create Peppermint 7 LiveUSBs. You can find the executable file in the other_isos folder on the DVD.
