Data General has a B2 firewall in evaluation for use by NSA as DOCKMASTER II.

B2 is about proving your product works and about verification of strict
high quality software engineering practices from product conception and
architecture through design and implementation, and continuing on
throughout the product lifecycle.

B2 has everything to do with any product, firewall or otherwise.  Words are
cheap.  The proof of the puddin' is in the eattin' (as my ol' 9th grade
trig teacher, Odelovan Smith, used to say back in ought-62).
