- For
- Linux desktop users reviewing security hardening
- Worth noticing
- The homepage says risky network changes undo themselves unless confirmed, and snapshots precede each change.
Field notes
The described workflow separates inspection from changes: users review a plan, see which files, rules, and services it touches, and can later restore a snapshot. The homepage lists 26 hardening settings and says 32 signed plugins run in separate sandboxes with visible permissions. It also names Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, and Arch as test environments, while noting that version 1.0 is still in preparation.
