Ed:

Probably for the same reason that the Milkyway SecurIT Firewall with TRUE
"EAL-3" certification doesn't get too much mention...we're busy spending
more money on product, than marketing!  :-)   Seriously, Milkyway is the
ONLY firewall on the NSA's EPL list.  You can check it out as it is up on
the EPL webpage (see: http://www.radium.ncsc.mil/tpep/epl/cc_st.html).
Both FW-1 and Raptor spend zillions of $$ on marketing but I think that
Cyberguard (a very good product, BTW) and us just don't spend that much.
The more noise, the more recognition, I guess!  

Cheers!
