SAVOY, Illinois―25 April 2006―Argus Systems Group, the global leader in trusted web foundations, today announced the release of PitBullFoundation and PitBull Foundation Suite for Linux.


FoundationSuiteもついにLinux対応ですか。

The features and functions of PitBullFoundation for Linux are similar to those incorporated in the recently released product PitBullFoundation for AIX.


AIXの最新版とLinux版も機能は同じようだ。


PitBull Foundation for Linux uses the Linux Security Module (LSM) to add the new functionality.


LSMを使用するのはMLでの発言の通りですね。

The Foundation code base for Linux will be released under the GPL and submitted for inclusion in the mainline kernel.

submitはホントでした。

Argus plans to submit this product for evaluation under the Common Criteria LSPP at EAL 4+. Discussions are underway with potential sponsors and the evaluation should be completed by the end of this year.


今年中に完了させるのはいいのだけど、スポンサーが誰かなのがいちばん気になるところ。

PitBullLX, a secure kernel modification built on the Domain Based Access Control model, is also available for Linux and Solaris, and will soon be released for AIX.


LXのGPL化については触れてなかったなあ。AIX版を出すようだ。
