Secureblue - Atomic Fedora Hardening

If you use Fedora Media Writer to write Silverblue to your USB stick, it automatically verifies the checksum/sig

when you install secureblue, it pulls the unverified image first to pull the pubkey and then automatically rebases you into the signed image on firstrun.

I’m planning on using secureblue in a VM.

eventually we may end up publishing ISOs directly to cloudflare r2, but there are prerequisites:

  • we need a website (in progress)
  • we need bootc kargs.d to ship (they’re working on it)
  • we need github actions integration with cloudflare r2
  • we need integration tests so we can ensure the reliability of our ISOs (in progress)

ah then just follow fedora’s verification steps on their iso download page

Was gonna reply this sad news. As for the reason why, is this because of the use of wlroots or other libraries, or simply the security just hasn’t been built into the compositors? Context is that I’m interested in developing one for fun, but I’d want to see what you think is the major security flaws.

I’m really enjoying the ublue KDE image (Aurora-dx).

IMHO the KDE team has been really quite responsive on the development front over the last few years, and subsequently it’s become a very polished DE.

Even the Fedora SIG recently promoted KDE Plasma to Official status, standing alongside Workstation.

Any efforts to expand to match Fedora’s ā€œequal treatmentā€ would be fantastic.

One of secureblue’s contributors is considering taking this item if it’s not actively being worked on already.

QubesOS is considering adding Secureblue as a template.

I always imagined this setup to be the most secure way for desktop OS users, and it looks like it is going to happen :eyes:.

You can guys show some interest in this issue to speed up the process!

that is a feature request though.
But then again how many people I’ve seen ask for it, I’m surprised this isn’t a standard.

Secureblue on qubes would be a killer feature. Next up is a secureblue implementation of whonix. Essentially a gateway for tor. Except not made from Debian garbage.

There has been some chatter in the discord about using secureblue as a base image for some kind of ā€œprivacy imageā€. It would be an independent project not affiliated with secureblue, so this is just an FYI that there are others interested in working on it.

Hopefully you all can collaborate and form a project around it :smile:

Would there be challenges in qubes os adding you guys as a template?

Not sure how that relates to the post you responded to :smile:

But :person_shrugging: I’m not familiar with Qubes
