featuring as many as 32 processors and clustering systems of up to four
machines.
Robustness
With over 30 years of development, SCO UNIX systems offer stability and maturity
ideally suited to serve a wide range of environments including lengthy
unattended process monitoring, automated embedded systems, mobile combat
environments, ocean and space research, and many more.
Security
SCO operating systems exceed U.S. Government Orange Book C2 security
requirements. An operating system based on SCO technology is available with the
B1 level of security.

environment. Today, the majority of Internet servers are based on UNIX
Technology.

Whereas Windows NT is based on the innovation of a single company, the UNIX
system leverages the collective innovation of many of the industry's technology
leaders, including SCO, HP, IBM, Data General, Sun Microsystems, and Novell.
