Apparently they don't even consider SuSE linux widely used. Historically SuSE linux has made more of an effort with Security than RedHat (at least as far as EAL certification). I'd just like to mention that our Security dept uses a few products to check out server security. They actually called us when we first started putting up SLES10 servers. When I asked why- it had the best security rating of any server at the company. Of course we weren't running any apps on the servers yet. But we are now and they are still very pleased with our rating. The tools they use are not perfect (for example they seem to be able to check software package levels under linux but aren't detailed to the point of telling if patches are applied)- but we were glad SLES10 looked better than most servers here.
