I remember working with someone contracting for DoD who had to rebuild Apache because he wasn’t allowed to use open source libraries for security reasons 😂 your tax dollars at work
That doesn’t make sense. The NSA published an excellent guide to secure hardening of RHEL that was like a Bible for all the security teams back in the day
DoD probably just had some dummies back then that eventually got replaced
Yeah I told him as much. He agreed it was dumb
Wow
Is there any civilian alternative distros like this one?
TAILS is probably better than this ever was.
Tails?
Thanks I’ll check it out.
It was kinda bad.
It’s a lot better now, but getting to military web sites, especially OWA, has always been a pain in the ass on personal computers. I tried this out trying to avoid using my main computer for work stuff and it just didn’t work that well.
I don’t think anyone was really using it that much which is probably why it isn’t maintained.
