Whazup?

[jont at us.ibm.com]

I hope nobody would beat you up, look at you strangely maybe.

Of course if you hunt around lots of it is being attempted in the Linux
space
     - ACL's (ext3 & others)
     - audit (SGI ?)
     - least privilege [kernel 'capabilities' - note the quotes :-]
(transmeta)
     - extended security models [e.g. GFAC, type enforcement, ...]
(several)
     - C2 assurance (US govt)

The weak spot is documentation ...

Dear All,
   My name is Georg Thomas. I have been involved with compartmented mode
workstations and trusted operating systems for a long time, pretty much
all on HP hardware. I've been down in the guts of pretty much everything
- networking, file system, mac enforcement.
   I'm pretty interested in this. How much would you folks beat me up if
I said I was interested in doing a Linux implementation of this?

Georg Thomas
