- Mr. Sipples,
- the November 1st issue of "Datamation" reviews Pyramid's Development Corp.
- PC/DACS and Net/DACS. The articles deals with security features which
- companies certainly need. The product, among other things, offers mainframe
- security. Fifth Generation's Micronyx division is also working with IBM to
- develop a high-security log-on system for OS/2. Computer Associates are also
- currently testing their version of CA-ACF2 and CA-Top for OS/2.
