<p>I am currently a member of the design team for the
|
|
|
|
|
next-generation operating system from the NonStop Enterprise
|
|
|
|

Division of HP.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>I became interested in Internet Security when I established
|
|
|
|
|
a home office in 1999 and had DSL service installed in our
|
|
|
|
|
home. I investigated ipchains and developed the scripts which
|
|
|
|
|
are now collectively known as <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
"http://seawall.sourceforge.net">Seattle Firewall</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
Expanding on what I learned from Seattle Firewall, I then
|
|
|
|
|
designed and wrote Shorewall.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>I telework from our <a href=
|
|

|
