Secure Computing - Sidewinder (BSD)

Are you sure about that? Secure computing makes a trusted operating
system (called LOCK, if I recall correctly) but Sidewinder was based
on BSDI with some orange book fairy dust blown on it - I don't think
it was a _real_ trusted operating system, just good old BSDI (which is
probably better) with some hacks in it to include the domain/type
enforcement stuff.
