[qubes-users] Re: Maybe a silly question
> As Qubes works by means of the principle of security by isolation and every > part of the hardware is running in a virtual machine. Does it make any sense > to use Kaspersky Security for virtualization over the xen hypervisor to > improve security and antihacker security? The KasperskyOS uses a hosted hypervisor (type-2 hypervisor). The KasperskyOS is based on a reliable proprietary microkernel. They use device emulation or where possible paravirtualization. KasperskyOS is able to use hardware virtualization extensions, but does not require them [1]. I assume they use an mixed approach of binary translation and kernel based virtualization. However, everything is proprietary. This is the reason what makes a technical and security comparison between KasperksyOS and QubesOS impossible. However, it is easy to argue why Xen is a good choice as hypervisor for security projects such as QubesOS: - Xen is open source, which means everybody can audit and anylze it - Xen is used by several large companies in their cloud data center (Amazon AWS, Netflix etc.) -> Industrial proven - Xen was developed and maintained for over a decade and has proven to be reasonable secure and flexible. - Xen itself has a very small code base, which means less code running higher privileged CPU modes (Intel VT + AMD-V ring -1, ARM "HYP" mode). > Is going KasperskyOS to suppose a big concurrency to Qubes? No, QubesOS has a very high security standard driven by excellent research from Invsible Things labs. Furthermore, QubesOS is open source, which means people can extend QubesOS for their own use cases. Larger community projects which extend QubesOS are Whonix, the Archlinux-Template, the Mirage-Firewall Unikernel. In addition there are a couple of smaller projects. By the way, KasperskyOS is not the only solution. Bromium vSentry for example is another endpoint virtualization solution.

In addition, I tried to use xkb-switch, but without much success. Interesting about xkb-switch is the fact, that it shows I use a US layout in the VM, which is surprising because I use a QWERTZ (German) layout and it works.

[qubes-users] Re: Qubes 3.2 questions and issues.....
Hello, jumping from Windows directly to Qubes OS is a big step. Congrats for being able to make the step. > During installation I selected luks encryption, which works fine. But my ssd > is encrypted using the bios, so perhaps not using luks would give me better > battery life, and cpu performance? I am not sure how the BIOS is able to encrypt your SSD. However, when it comes to encryption I only trust Open Source and LUKS + dm-crypt is Open Source. The reason is that others or myself can verify if LUKS + dm-crypt is secure. Of course not everybody is an expert in cryptography, but there are some smart people who did or do the work for you (or us). Regarding performance, LUKS + dm-crypt in Qubes OS uses AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). CPUs have additional instructions to improve the performance of AES in hardware. See [AES-NI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AES_instruction_set) and [Intel® Advanced Encryption Standard (Intel® AES) Instructions Set - Rev 3.01](https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-advanced-encryption-standard-aes-instructions-set/). Therefore, your CPU is very energy efficient in doing the encryption and decryption operations. In addition, AES is already optimized for modern desktop and embedded CPUs. Keep in mind that full disk encryption requires far less resources compared to displaying a window on your screen. > I did have trouble shutting qubes down.

[qubes-users] Re: Why is there no built-in nvidia driver support? aka GTX 980 issues
So my big question is: why does Qubes OS not have built-in GPU support? why is it working better on integrated graphics? Integrated graphics cards are mostly Intel based. Intel is one of the top contributors to Linux and provides free and open source drivers for their integrated GPU's. Nvidia is one of the worst companies [1] when it comes to Linux open source graphics drivers. On the other hand, Nvidia provides well supported proprietary driver. However, including binary drivers in an open source operating system is always difficult and raises security problems, since it is impossible to audit the source code of the proprietary driver. Who knows what the proprietary driver really does? Another problem is the switching mechanism between integrated and discrete GPU in Laptops, Nvidia did never provide any source code or driver for that. The open source community had to fill that gap. I personally would like to see a powerful open source Noveau driver for Nvidia cards which outperforms Nvidia's proprietary driver. [1]: [Linus Torvalds Gives Nvidia the Finger.

Re: [qubes-users] Re: [qubes-devel] Re: Announcement: Qubes OS Begins Commercialization and Community Funding Efforts
Hello Leeteqxv, if I understood you correct, what your clientele want's to have is constant improvements for Qubes OS. They don't want to compile or test things. This is a subscription based model, where people pay the Qubes OS team for their ongoing work rather than for an existing product. Furthermore, I agree with you "memberships-based support services (premium communities) is a good business model for" Qubes OS. However, I think that testing new features and introducing new features can be done together with the open source community and Qubes OS could offer a LTS version for money. LTS version could focus on guaranteeing backports and fixes for specific LTS version over a period of 3 or more years, whereas the community support will only be offered for a year or till the next version of Qubes OS appears. I think the Qubes OS team should focus on getting paid for their ongoing work rather than Qubes OS as a product and the only way to do this is to offer monthly or yearly subscriptions for customers and additionally support memberships for IT professionals (consultants, IT departments etc.). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Re: Redox OS
Hello, yes, it would be nice to use RedoxOS as sort of graphical Unikernel VM. RedoxOS could be used for: - password managers (isolated password manager VM) - graphical pgp/certificate management - IRC/XMPP chatting - network isolated file storage for confidential files - disposable VMs in the future: - email - browsing RedoxOS could be used to provide per-application isolation. However, the biggest advantage of RedoxOS is the small memory and storage footprint. RedoxOS requires approx. 128 MB storage space and needs less memory than most Linux distribution. I installed it in June on top of Qubes OS and it was running fairly well for being a new operating system. It still has some rough edges. I especially liked the simplicity of the graphical desktop environment (Orbit). best regards J.

For example: Install my IDE, git etc. At the last step I create new App VM's which are based on my development qube. I name them mostly after the project or programming language.

[qubes-users] Re: windows 7 home premium sp1 install issue
Hello, sadly windows is not 100% stable crash dumps can occur. Sometimes it is enough to start the VM a second or third time. After a crash windows normally shows a boot menu with several options (see http://ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com/images/art_geier_fixwinbootcrash/elementLinks/geier4_fig01.jpg). This menu is not visible in Qubes OS, but you can make it visible by setting the mark in "Right click -> VM Settings -> Run in Debug Mode". I read in the specs that the HP EliteBook 850G1 has an SSD drive, so Windows should start in 60 seconds. This is the time for the qrexec service.

If I do something more specific it would make sense to create a debian-8-docker-dev template. You can then create multiple AppVM's based on the debian-8-docker-dev template. Than you maybe have a general debian-8-dev, debian-8-app and a debian-8-min template etc. If you want to update/upgrade the different templates regularly, than it would be a good idea to write a small shell, python or ruby script to automate the update/upgrade process for all templates. There is no good solution for doing this.

[qubes-users] Re: AMD versus Intel
Hello, the questiion Intel vs. AMD was coming up multiple times. In short Qubes OS supports Intel based Notebooks, because Notebooks with AMD CPU are hard to find. Xen's CPU/Memory virtualization is pretty efficient. Everything related to graphics virtualization is difficult. In general because of close source driver and the lack of virtualization extensions for GPU's. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Re: New qubes user question/issue: firewall VM consuming unexpected amount of RAM
Hello, all VM's in Qubes consume a large amount of memory by default. You can restrict your firewall VM to 1 GB or less. You can restrict the memory consummtion under 'Right click -> VM Settings -> Advanced' to Max. Memory ~1024 MB or less. There is also a Unikernel solution. Unikernels are special purpose operating systems. Thomas Leonard created a Unikernel firewall for Qubes OS which runs perfectly fine with 30 MB of RAM. You will find resources on how to do it here: https://github.com/talex5/qubes-mirage-firewall http://roscidus.com/blog/blog/2016/01/01/a-unikernel-firewall-for-qubesos/ Best regards J.

[qubes-users] Re: VMWare inside Debian AppVM?
Hello, Xen is capable of doing so called nested virtualization: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Nested_Virtualization_in_Xen Nested virtualization is more a experimental topic for researchers. If you just want to run a VMWare VM on your Qubes OS than you should simply consider converting the VMWare VM to a Xen VM and run it on top of Qubes OS as (e. g. HVM). Best regards J.

For the second method there are two paths, one which uses kali repos directly and another is based on katoolin (which is a helper script). Use the katoolin one, that method works well. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] AMD Zen Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV)
Hello, till now the argument of Qubes OS was that there are no laptops with AMD CPU's or APU's which Qubes OS can run on. Qubes OS primary focus is on laptops and than on workstations. Qubes OS uses Xen to isolate "qubes" (vms) from each other. Xen can run on AMD, Intel, ARM and other platforms. Therefor Qubes itself is not dependent on the hardware itself. Qubes depends on certain virtualization extensions like Second Level Address Translation (SLAT), CPU virtualization extension and IO-Virtualization (IOMMU). AMD has all those virtualization features. So, in theory Qubes OS could run on AMD chips. The problem till now was that AMD was not producing any hardware which was able to compete with Intel's quasi mono pole. This changed with this weeks AMD Zen announcement. The next question is: when does AMD Zen CPU's will appear in laptops? The next question is, will AMD offer SEV support for consumer CPU's? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
