07 What is Dockmaster? (Computer Security Evaluation)

Dockmaster, or more precisely dockmaster.ncsc.mil, is an
unclassified computer system used by the Trusted Product
Evaluation Program (TPEP) to exchange information between
product evaluators, vendors, and others within the computer
system security community. Dockmaster is based on the
B2-evaluated Honeywell MULTICS product. This is a very old
platform, and efforts are underway to replace Dockmaster with a
more current product. In addition to use by the TPEP and the
NCSC, dockmaster provides service to the information security
community through electronic mail, bulletin boards, and forums
for the exchange of ideas. Online access to the INFOSEC Product
and Services Catalogue is available. Information is provided
about training courses and scheduled INFOSEC conferences.
