A recent article in Systems and Software (Implementing security under Unix by Bill Stewart of Gould, Feb '86) mentioned some manuals available from the US Govt which document a computer system security standard. I tracked down the following information for any who are interested: DoD Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria (CSC-STD-001-83), GPO Stock #008-000-00418-8, $4.75 DoD Password Management Guideline (CSC-STD-002-85), GPO Stock #008-000-00443-9, $1.75 Guidance for Applying the DoD Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria in Specific Environments (CSC-STD-003-85), GPO Stock #008-000-00442-1, $1.00 Technical Rationale Behind CSC-STD-003-85: Computer Security Requirements (CSC-STD-004-85), GPO Stock #008-000-00441-2, $2.00 Personal Computer Security Considerations (CSC-WA-002-85), GPO Stock #008-000-00439-1, $1.00 SCOMP Final Evaluation Report (CSC-EPL-85/001), GPO Stock #008-000-00438-2, $3.00 Bill recommended the first 4 but I am ordering them all to have a look at them. At these prices it seems like the thing to do. Ordering information: GPO accepts Mastercard, VISA, or checks payable to "The Superintendent of Documents". Delivery will take approximately 3 weeks. For orders of 100 or more, GPO will offer a 25% discount. Phone orders: 202-783-3238, 0800-1630 hours (Eastern time I guess) Written orders: Superintendent of Documents US Government Printing Office Washington, DC 20402 -- Scott S.
