Security enchanced |
Platform: |
Intel compatible |
Description: |
Immunix OS is a Linux distribution designed to be secure both now and in the future. The Immunix security tools (StackGuardT, SubDomainT, and CryptoMarkT)provide security bug tolerance so that even if security vulnerability isfound in one of the programs supplied with Immunix, the vulnerability willprobably not be exploitable by attackers. Immunix OS is based on Red Hat6.2, 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. It was developed as part of technology funded by DARPA - U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

Sentry Firewall
 |
Sentry Firewall CD-ROM is a Linux-based bootable CDROM suitable for use as an inexpensive and easy to maintain firewall, server, or IDS(Intrusion Detection System) Node. The system is designed to be immediately configurable for a variety of different operating environments via a configuration file located on a floppy disk, a local hard drive, and/or a network via HTTP(S), FTP, SFTP, or SCP.
The Sentry Firewall CD is a complete Linux system that runs off of an initial ramdisk, much like a floppy-based system, and a CD. The default kernel is a current 2.4.x series kernel with various Netfilter patches applied. An OpenWall -patched current 2.2.x kernel is also available on the CD.
Booting from the CDROM is a fairly familiar process. The BIOS execs the bootloader( Syslinux ) - which then displays a bootprompt and loads the kernel and ramdisk into memory. Once the kernel is running, the ramdisk is then mounted as root(/). At this point our configuration scripts are run(written in perl) that configure the rest of the system. It is the job of these configure scripts to put the various startup and system files into the proper location using either what is declared in the configuration file(sentry.conf) or the system defaults located in the /etc/default directory.
Most of the critical files used at boot time can be replaced with your own copy when declared in the configuration file. This is essentially how we allow the user to configure the system using his/her own configuration and init files.
All of the binaries, files, scripts, etc, used to create the CD-ROM are also available on the CD-ROM. So, with a little practice, you can easily build and customize your own bootable Sentry Firewall CD.

SmoothWall
 |
The SmoothWall project was founded by Lawrence Manning, Richard Morrell, Jon Fautley and Tom Ellis in Summer 2000, with the first version - version 0.9 - released via the SourceForge open source collaboration site in August of that year. The intention was to create a firewall operating system distribution based on Linux, enabling a low-end, possibly otherwise redundant, Intel and compatible PC to become a hardened Internet firewall. The SmoothWall team created a real alternative to hardware routers with costs beyond the financial reach of most individuals.
From these small beginnings, the project grew rapidly. Soon hundreds of copies were being downloaded every month, and then thousands, with people using it all over the world. Even the project founders were amazed at just how quickly SmoothWall became so popular. The team grew; new features such as ISDN and ADSL support, Squid web proxying, and additional languages were added, and SmoothWall became - and is still - one of the most popular open source software projects.
The initial design goals are still the foundation of SmoothWall today, namely:
- Protect the local network from outside attack, whilst interfering as little as possible with user activities
- Be simple enough to be installed by home users with no previous knowledge of Linux required
- Support a wide variety of network cards, modems and other hardware
- Work with many different connection methods and ISPs across the world
- Increase ease of use, management and configuration by use of tools such as web access interface
SmoothWall is intended for use by anyone from home users to systems administrators. It can run on virtually any 32-bit Intel or i386-compatible PC from a 486 to an Athlon or Pentium 4, and it enables that PC to become a dedicated firewall appliance, aka a SmoothWall box. Apart from the PC to run SmoothWall on, all that is required is an Internet connection, some simple networking equipment to connect the SmoothWall box to the rest of your private LAN , |
