Cray and atsec Achieve CC Security Certification of Cray Linux Environment

“This evaluation adds to atsec’s impressive record of timely
completions of Linux OS evaluations. Since August 2003, atsec has
initiated and completed more than 15 Linux evaluations at EAL3+ and
EAL4+ on a broad range of hardware platforms. In order to help its
customers reach their markets effectively and take the maximum
benefit from their evaluation investment, atsec aims at completion
of CC projects in conjunction with the company’s development
schedules. “”The CC certification of CLE continues a long history
of Cray support for demanding government and defense computing
requirements,” said Ian Miller, Cray senior vice president of sales
and marketing. “The Linux-based operating system within the CLE
suite is designed to run large, complex applications and scale
efficiently to more than 240,000 processor cores. CLE provides a
rich, highly efficient programming environment that makes it easier
to develop scalable applications using the MPI, SHMEM, UPC and
OpenMP parallel programming models.””
