Note that this is out-of-date. A newer version is now available.
Several other new reports have been added to the pages recently.
We've also added an experimental interface to the archive -- your
suggestions will be appreciated, as will any contributions.
For those of you who haven't stumbled across it yet, the COAST archive
is, to our knowledge, the largest single on-line repository of
computer security papers and tools. We have over 17,000 separate file
system entries, comprising almost 300Mb of "stuff". We have pretty
much everything except cryptography code (for stupid export control
reasons).
The archive is available via ftp://coast.cs.purdue.edu/pub
We support up to 25 simultaneous connections (average seems to be
about 10), but your host must generate a reverse DNS record or you
cannot login. We're currently seeing about 100Mb download traffic per
day.
The archive is also available via gopher://coast.cs.purdue.edu
The COAST homepage, with links to the tech reports, projects
descriptions, and archive links is http://www.cs.purdue.edu/coast
If any of you stumble across code, reports, reviews, or other info you
think we should have in the archive, please let us know at
security-archive@cs.purdue.edu -- we'll be happy to link them in.
