- axiolite 10mo agoEven back in 1996, OpenBSD emphasized security. By 2000 they claimed "Three years without a remote hole in the default install!" at the very top of their website. Qmail was released in Dec 1995 and its security withstood scrutiny for quite a lot of years. I'd be interested in seeing just how many RCEs a modern security researcher could actually come up with from a 1996 release of BSDi, OpenBSD, Solaris, AIX, etc. I'd bet on just a handful. I can understand how, if your whole world was Windows 3.1 and 95, you'd feel that way about security at the time.
