There are many operating systems used by users for their ease usage, but if you ask a question which is a secure OS? The true answer will be no operating system is 100 % secure. Recently a new operating system has been built that is said to be secure.
All operating systems heart is the kernel which is the core and takes care of all the activities that are being carried out in the system. Windows are monolithic and whereas Linux and Mac are said to be non monolithic.
In this case if the kernel (Singe module) has been hacked then the whole system will be under the control of an attacker. To avoid this a new operating system has been developed in the name of #Qubes OS.
This new OS uses the concept of virtualisation that has been used by many users to share or to effectively use the resources available. It can share the hardware and storage that are available.
It is not a Linux Distribution but it is a #Xen Distribution which is a bare metal virtualization in which to the core Hardwares can be shared and used effectively.
It supports any number of os to run on the system based on the hardware available and the distribution is based on a microkernel. It supports
Windows Distributions
Linux Distributions
Whoinx.
Whoinx is another security based OS that is built using Debian Kernel and it uses TOR network for browsing to preserve the anonymity of the users while surfing the Internet.
The #Qubes 3.0 is expected to be released by the end of October.
P.S : The post is to create awareness and not to be misused.
