SE Linux

[Flood Randy Capt AFCA/GCF <randy.flood@scott.af.mil>]

Here's a pretty interesting article on SE Linux.  SE Linux is a research
project that the NSA has released as an open-source project. 

The NSA releasing anything open-source is a big step for mankind.  Or, as
the artilce put it: 

"If you haven't been following the cryptography area lately, let me assure
you that this action by the NSA was the crypto equivalent of the Pope coming
down off the balcony in Rome, working the crowd with a few loaves of bread
and some fishes, and then inviting everyone to come over to his place to
watch the soccer game and have a few beers. There are some things that one
just never expects to see, and the NSA handing out source code along with
details of the security mechanism behind it was right up there on that
list."
