I do a fair amount of reading various articles throughout the day in a vain attempt to keep on top of technology. I recently came across this sensationally titled article “GNU/Linux Security: Ubuntu has been Cracked!“. You were drawn in by a sensational headline only to be suckered into reading an article about security, Linux, and proactivity. We all know that Ubuntu is a very secure OS with proof by hard-core hackers at a recent “crackfest”.

Read the article. It has good information, but left ONE open question for me. “HOW” do you get proactive with users. What tools, techniques, and avenues can we use to get people to open up to a new way of doing things? Human nature is to resist change with all of our might.

Help me out with this. I run a local Meetup and have a good crowd, but the attendees are already geeks. Most of them run secure alternatives to Windows. How can we be proactive?
