Linux a la Black Sabbath

The paranoid way

Tinfoilhat Linux

Kurz worum's geht:
Linux auf Floppy
Ultrasicher
Ultraparanoid
Ein paar wohl einzigartige Ansätze, die beiden vorhergehenden Punkte zu realisieren
Kein Netzwerksupport

Dazu die README des Projekts:

Zitat

You may want to Tinfoil Hat Linux when ....
*****************************************************
* You're using a computer that could have a keystroke logger installed.
http://www.keyghost.com is an example of a tiny & cheap hardware loggers.
There are smaller & cheaper ones out there, and they're all hard to notice.
Look for them the next time you're using a public terminal at a convention
or hosting facility.
* Using your personal GPG keys at work, school or a web cafe where
you don't trust or own the equipment.
* If you maintain a PGP Certificate Authority and have to have a safe
place to use the CA key.
* If you're with witness.org &/or have to hide the very fact
that you have PGP.
* If you simply don't want to risk putting a PGP key on a hard drive
where someone else might have access to it.
* The Illuminati are watching your computer, and you need to use morse code
to blink out your PGP messages on the numlock key.

Noch ein paar ausgewählte Features, die mich zum Schmnzeln gebracht haben:

Zitat

A hash of the NVRAM is displayed at boot time.

Zitat

THL has gpggrid , a wrapper for GPG that lets you use a video game style
character entry system instead of typing in your passphrase. Keystroke
loggers get a random set of grid points, not your passphrase.

Zitat

All temporary files are created on an encrypted ramdisk which is destroyed on
shutdown. Even the PGP keyfile information can be stored encrypted on the
floppy.

Sollte sich jemand also auch nach Service Pack 2 für Windoze XP noch nicht völlig sicher fühlen, dem sei hiermit eben vorgestellte "Distribution" an's Herz gelegt. Ich find's w00t.
