A lot. Xen is bare metal. Setting the BIOS/ME aside, as long as you keep your dom0 clean and keep confidential information in qubes that are always offline (have no netvm) all you have to worry about is people with physical access including yourself and XEN virtualization escapes. VMWare run on-top of another OS... game over. Anything that can happen to your host OS whether it's FOSS or not happens to your VMs (keyloggers, screen grabbers, network monitoring ... everything). I am fully aware you can make the same argument about the ME ... but usable security is never absolut. So you got to pick your battles and think about what you are protecting against. Qubes is definetly next level compared to everything else. /Sven - -- public key: https://www.svensemmler.org/0x8F541FB6.asc fingerprint: D7CA F2DB 658D 89BC 08D6 A7AA DA6E 167B 8F54 1FB6 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEE18ry22WNibwI1qeq2m4We49UH7YFAl6rSiMACgkQ2m4We49U H7ao8A//Tj7Hp+yJBmZquISu20qxnQUNA+sfJOTANvJRthpnnIdhmdg15pL6Ox9y vbEdvo7C/ArHlN+DHIMmNZ8csyrjjM6BFm6ywJ35cy7VO18wrZV/qmhFbg18d552 xyTBUVEOVO5J4AYndRNruIOfJqnAE6+09EDz1sQWv8JiMvYy2C6f9q/P0oKpWhzO 1aMzM1lerN9W4U0vyIPahJG9vdGc2sWlKcvYwxmioCk9+nCtsmBl4E/TkMhX2qUd 2qlbpNj5K9eBiibOLtyL/VXy1pF2wlrQQ+Ydth+tRykOeBwPrXUqHjjeLtvBPhil dtZf8deqzhpQpT2ZDV6XKs8oXH6b/kKpJDLZqERugkKfyKhjUuKzHSwVTfXDJv+R y/826u0ZDyjjLg7An5Fo6vFq2sN1Li+MpBuzK4+3Dm0JymwEWD3fSDXQP3dvf6ey q9Nqq55zw/HhhKcECdquZs0SvDHUCPKxxyoNnjAST1hWsDmn9s2T42PI7D8O4QfH hMR4suZNomCpp4Da5C73HAnUiNgh89l1VgxliXDB53H1MgJdWG6EQXSdvx7TKf1l P5qHDapidWma9Df3lGLDMFYMQjBJ5dZt7ixLdpjaPJ83u81cWVC/ioJHw0G93/Mq hlslIgh1o9r5u2zhXU83C+yEYxGdSPGqfrr3tz7xfUc9J4UTOcY= =ag77 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
