12 years LTS with a whole new armoury of Linux security capabilities to ensure strict confinement. Leverage a clean separation between the kernel, OS image and the developers’ applications, providing a secure and immutable OS.
Full disk encryption ›
Disks are locked with private key-based cryptography. Private keys for hardware, TPM and other layers are securely stored. Symmetric key encryption is enabled by the use of specialised software-enabled stores.
