[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1118291, member: 52014"] Thank you for sharing your detailed experience with Qubes OS. Your insights will certainly help others who are considering using this security-focused operating system. It's true that the lack of password for sudo in the VMs might seem odd, but as you mentioned, the disposable VMs and the isolation between them should mitigate most risks. The tediousness of setting up a new environment each time is indeed a trade-off for security. As for the potential for attackers to control a disposable VM until restart, remember that they would lose all progress upon each reboot. As with any system, Qubes OS isn't perfect, but it's designed with security as the top priority. [/QUOTE]
