RedHat Linux

On January 12, 2001, last week the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) publicly released a prototype "security-enhanced Linux" operating system, hoping to attract the developer community to find ways to improve Linux security for business and governmental uses.

So your answer is: You can't. Not yet. But soon, hopefully soon. ;-)

The latest from the National Security Agency:

(the link took forever to load with a fast digital connection as the NSA public server was bogged down, so I thought you might appreciate the highlights I cut a and pasted here...)

"Linux was chosen as the platform for this work because its growing success and open development environment provided anopportunity to demonstrate that this functionality can be successful in a mainstream operating system and, at the same time, contribute to the security of a widely used system. Additionally, the integration of these security research results into Linux may encourage additional operating system security research that may lead to additional improvement in system security...."

..."There is still much work needed to develop a complete security solution. In addition, due to resource limitations,we have not yet been able to evaluate and optimize the performance of the security mechanisms. Currently, we can only support the x86 architecture and have only been able to test it on Red Hat 6.1 distribution...."

No mention yet of a NSA C2 certification for any 7.x implementation of Red Hat... Im on the topic daily. Email me for any more.
