CloudLinux Inc. today announced the availability of its KernelCare & CentOS® 6 Extended Lifecycle Support (ELS) bundle. This package is intended to protect organizations still running CentOS® 6, which will go end-of-life (EOL) in November.
Running a server without the support of the OS vendor presents major security and uptime problems. Without continued security updates, a server is increasingly susceptible to new sorts of attacks. It is challenging for the enterprise to migrate to the newest versions of CentOS®, and at the same time, they can not run servers without OS support. New vulnerabilities and other issues may be found, but no new patches or fixes will be provided by the vendor to fix them.
“In working with many organizations, we have seen there is a high affinity between our Extended Lifecycle Support for CentOS®6 service and our KernelCare product,” says Jim Jackson, President and CRO at CloudLinux Inc. “They are both about keeping production Linux systems updated and secure.
