aide security?

["Janus N." Tøndering <janus () bananus dk>]

Hi,

I am in the process of preparing a new install of Debian for a machine.
Having installed aide it seems to me that it does not really help
anything. How am I going to the database trustable? Is there some way to
cryptographically sign it? Otherwise, an intruder could just as well
fiddle with the database, right?!

Hope you can give me some pointers...
