Trustix Secure Linux was a Linux distribution intended for use on servers and focused on security and stability. It was a hardened and secure OS, meaning that non-essential services and binaries are not installed, while UNIX staples like Sendmail are replaced by programs like Postfix. By late 2005 a series of budget cuts had resulted in many of the developers being laid off, and by early 2006 all members of the original Trustix team had left the company. Trustix Secure Linux continues to be maintained by a very small team of developers in India.
