Post #226,800 by Ashton 9/27/05 6:39:57 PM Reply	Wasn't that the last NT to pass the Orange book (whatever) 'Certification' re security (the first they'd actually heard of that word..?) Or was that V3.50? -- providing it was in a locked room with no floppy; nothing connected to it. ie Ed Curry redux. And they Imported, did they not? == Hired-away some mega-Honcho (was he ex-DEC?) to do it all: for the little drop-out preppie guys to attribute to M$ Innovation. And: none of the above has occurred re Govmint 'Security' tests since? (Yet all the Govmint folks buy the add-ons at $Bs - I'm pretty sure that part is true.) (And.. I Loved the Ring-0 dissertations, first time around - why, even moi could grok what a lazy 'driver'-makin jockey might do.. right there in the hen house.) What a joke, them 'Standards'. And 'Security Proofs' cha cha cha
Post #226,803 by ben_tilly 9/27/05 6:57:58 PM Reply	Not by my recollection NT 3.50, service pack 3. Ed Curry claimed he could have had 3.51 certified fast. NT 4.0, no way. Eventually, many service packs later (6?), NT 4.0 managed to pass a UK test which Microsoft claimed was "equivalent" to the US test. I've not seen proof of that equivalence, nor have I heard of any later version of Windows passing such a security audit.
