One of my first contracts with IBM was to add (get this) a SECOND network interface to secure-XENIX, an MLS version of the software.
I believe it was being used as a “downgrade” audit station to allow data to be moved form one secure network to another. I believe the
original work was done by Jakob Recktor (probably butchering the spelling of his name).
That contract led to a few follow ons with IBM to port AIX to i860 based machines. I still have my old IBM badge kicking around somewhere.
