Which Distro Now?

[Vapo]

Hi

I have been using Linux for about a year only Unbuntu atm and i am starting to roll it out across more of my network however i was wondering which is the most secure Linux to use but also is not command heavy as i still have alot of learning to do in regards to the terminal.

Thank you for any help

Theres nothing as most secured. security is just more custom..
Good security can be obtained in most of the distros.

What are your security level expectations?

As said, security is not distro dependant, unless the targeted distro is fundamentally broken. Most users will be happy with a regular iptables firewall and very little more.

So, it all depends to what degree do you want to improve your security.

You can learn about iptable and how to tighten your security in many ways without having to migrate to another distro, assuming that for the rest you are happy with it. There are more advanced topics like SELinux, Pax, entryption of your HD, chroot jails, honeypots, etc. if you are running a server and feel a bit paranoid.
