=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====


LOMAC v0.1 - Low Water-Mark Mandatory Access Control for Linux
is now available.

The LOMAC Loadable Kernel Module is a security enhancement for Linux
that uses Low Water-Mark Mandatory Access Control to protect the
integrity of processes and data.  A partially functional prototype is
now available for single-CPU Linux 2.0 systems.  Although the
prototype is incomplete, enough functionality exists to demonstrate
LOMAC's ability to contain viruses and to limit the destructive
potential of malicious remote users and compromised root daemons.
LOMAC is freely available under the GNU Public License, and once
built, is installed simply by copying several files and rebooting.
Deinstallation requires only deleting the files, plus a reboot to
clear the LKM from kernel memory.  No kernel recompilations or changes
to existing configurations are needed.  The prototype still panics the
kernel periodically, and should be used for experimental purposes only
at this time.

LOMAC source and documentation are freely available under the GPL at:
