A few questions about this C1, C2 etc....
1. Is there a suite to test a systems security level on these standards ?
Satan doesn't do this....
2. How does a FreeBSD with DES and Kerberos rate ? Is there a well-known
number of things to do, starting with turn off fingerd I would suppose,
that gets you to some rating level ?
3. Is there a newsgroup/maillist explicitly devoted to security issues.
Or one where that traffic occurs ?
