The Trusted Solaris 8 Operating Environment uses a multilevel file system that allows segregation of different classes of (internal and external) users, with strictly enforced control over what data they can see and what operations they can perform.

Encryption
How do you protect data across the Internet and within the enterprise? Start with any of our newly announced UltraSPARC T2-based systems — Sun SPARC Enterprise T5110 & T5220 rack servers or the Sun Blade T6320 server module. Each server's UltraSPARC T2 processor includes on-chip cryptography accelerators that can reduce the cost of encryption processing by 20x while having almost no impact on performance. Suddenly, you can afford to encrypt all of your data, even across storage. With no additional encryption hardware or software required, and little to no performance penalty, this solution brings "zero cost security" to you. Sun’s Encryption solutions give you an immediate way to address: challenges in meeting compliance requirements while delivering secure Web transactions, costs associated with sensitive data exposures: out-of-pocket expenses, diminished reputation, loss of customers, and loss of IT productivity to fix security breaches.
