THANK YOU!

So many people just don’t get it; happy to see someone rational who does.

I WISH Linux had something like this, but it’s like NT 4.0; it doesn’t have it.

It’s getting there, slowly.

  • Clevis can do network and TPM pinned disk decryption.
  • With Linux UKIs you can do self signed secure boot, we still need the mechanisms for central signing. This would actually be better that windows, you control your own PKI and Microsoft can’t sign garbage your machines boot.
  • Logs is a somewhat bogus argument - log falsification on Windows has been done too. But linux is rather unprotected in comparison.

But the biggest issue is the mentality of ”I own my computer”. Sure, you own your private machine, but your company owns the computer you use for work and the data on it and has an interest in protecting that data from you. That particular threat model is hard to communicate, as Linux users normally don’t think of themselves as a threat vector.

Good to know they’re working on boot; what about something similar to AD and GPO?
