WireX is pleased to announce the release of Immunix OS 6.2. Immunix OS is a Linux distribution designed to be secure both now and in the future: the Immunix security tools (StackGuard, SubDomain, and CryptoMark) provide security bug tolerance so that even if a security vulnerability is found in one of the programs supplied with Immunix OS, the vulnurability probably will not be exploitable by attackers. Immunix OS 6.2 is the current release. Immunix OS 6.2 is based on Red Hat 6.2, but with all C source-available programs re-compiled with the StackGuard compiler. The result is a system that is fundamentally compatible with Red Hat Linux, but is secured against a majority of all Internet security attacks. The other Immunix technologies (SubDomain and CryptoMark) are not yet available. They will be included in a future release of Immunix OS. Immunix OS is available in a variety of forms from http://immunix.org * Download: o The StackGuard 2.0 compiler. Now ported to EGCS/GCC 3.0, available as: + binary RPM + source RPM + source tar ball + patches to EGCS o Individual StackGuarded binary RPMs for x86 Linux systems. o The complete ISO 9660 CD-ROM image (650 MB) * In person: come see us at USENIX, San Diego, June 21 and 22, where we will be giving out Immunix OS CDs (subject to availability) * Coming soon: Mail order CDs.
