[Gllug] Linux can lock down the core, apparently

[Tom Weissmann]

Hello list,

I saw this in an article (http://www.technewsworld.com/story/54830.html) 
and wondered what it meant - does anyone know?

> Today's operating systems are vulnerable to intrusion because they
> live on a device that permits write-only access, according to
> Steinberg. For instance, the core component in the Windows OS is not
> locked down, but Linux can lock down the OS, making it the OS of
> choice for solid-state computers.

cheers,
Tom SW
