   OpenBSD: The most secure OS around</a>, ZDNet, November 5, 2001
   </strong></font><br>
   
   IT columnist and former NASA and DoD network administrator and
   programmer Steven Vaughan-Nichols, praises the OpenBSD
   security audits and the team's search for potential problems
   and its resolution to fix them <strong>before</strong> they
   can develop into security holes:&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>&quot;Unlike
   most operating system vendors, the OpenBSD crew is proactive
   rather than reactive to security problems.&quot;</em><br>
   Then goes on naming OpenBSD's <em>secure by default</em>
   policy, Kerberos authentication protocol implementation, and
   TCP/IP stack built-in IPSec protocol, as ready to use VPN
   solutions whereas they are options to be installed and applied
   on other operating systems.<br>
   Furthermore, he writes he agrees with Theo de Raadt while
   quoting him saying <em>&quot;security is usually increased by
   removing stuff, not by adding more junk&quot;</em> in that
   it's easier to keep something simple secure.
