I would assume from the title (highlighted above) that it's Network
Security as from the perspective of using Linux tools. It could
possibly be a class only about networks of only Linux boxes, but I'd
think that would be a misnomer. It could be about securing Linux for
the network, but I'd think that'd be a pretty short class. ;-)
