Online and Internet security are not topics that typical computer users easily comprehend. All too often, Linux users put their blind trust in a particular distribution and assume that all Linux OSes are equally secure. However, not all Linux distros are created with the same degree of attention to security and privacy control. A misconfiguration of a firewall, or misapplied Web browser privacy and modem settings, can trash the best-designed Linux safety strategies. Kodachi Linux offers an alternative to leaving your computer privacy and security to chance.
Great article. I just recently discovered Kodachi and I must say I am impressed with the level of security that it presented me and also all the preloaded software, Tor connection and even more impressed that my MAC address was changed automatically. Things that normally would take me some time in other distros, Kodachi did it as it loaded.
Now, my question to you is, I know that Installing it on a hard drive defeats the purpose of anonymity, however for overall security and considering how robust this system is, don't you think it is a good idea to install it? for daily use, I rather use this distro rather than using Mint or any other distro with Tor and VPN, etc etc. I rather install this on my HD and forget about anything else.
Whats your take on that????
Thanks for your comments. I fully agree with your assessment. All the other security features Kodachi offers remain available with a full disk installation. The odds are still in your favor for better security control than you have with many other Linux options.
