MVSHIELD SUPPORTS ROCKY LINUX BASELINES

In December 2020, the CentOS project adopted the CentOS Stream approach. As a result, the Rocky Linux project stepped in to fill the need of legacy CentOS provided to product engineering teams. Rocky Linux is replicating the original intent of CentOS Linux by reproducing a derivative of RHEL. In April 2021, MontaVista became a Principal Sponsor of RESF. Six months later, we integrated Rocky Linux into our MVShield programs targeting the CentOS 8.x or Rocky 8.x baselines.
