Hey,
maybe Lenz or someone else from SuSe could track down an answer for me about
this. I was wondering if SuSE would ever consider making an audited secure
version of it's distro. As I learn more and more about security, I become more
and more paranoid, and I am getting to the point where I would like to be using
a B2 or B3 OS, as well as an A1 ratred network (Ratings by the US Department of
Defense: Trusted Products Evaluation Program) The only OS that falls within
those paramaters currently is, as far as I know, Wang Corps XTS line of OSs,
which are kinda pricey for plain old paranoids like me, that dont have
government-sized paranoia budgets.

Anyway, any information about formal security audits of Linux in general, and
SuSE in particular would be appreciated.
