MicroBSD : stripped down hardened secure BSD version builds. The
concept for MicroBSD is a hardend secure POSIX1e small foot print
OS for x86 (NOW), Alpha/Sun/PPC (or other) hardware to use as little hard
disk space as possible yet
provide fully functional Systems. Based on a complete server model,
builds for Firewall/IDS/VPN (NOW), SMTP/WWW/DNS/FTP and other
combinations will be developed over time. Systems features address
all aspects of security. These builds are designed to take the work
out of building secured network environments with specific features
unique to each one. Basically a Secured manageable system build
designed to do specific tasks.
Initiatives to build a Secure, Hardened POSIX1e draft OS. While
building on the roots of FreeBSD and OpenBSD, for their known
stability, security & robustness. We have actually forked into a
specialized hardened distribution. It seems we are on our way to
merge the best of both worlds back into one. While most "hardened"
and "secured" distros these days seem to be Linux based."
