This project aims to harden various desktop user applications for computers running a GNU/Linux distribution.
Project is very young and in early development and there are practically only very few applications and they are still not hardened to the fullest.
Here are no strict limitations to the scope of the project, as to what applications qualify to be included. Any desktop GUI application that can be hardened for more security and privacy can be included. Logically sensitive applications like browsers and email clients take priority.
Not necessarily security hardening. Here the term is used losely. Anything that disables implicit outbound connections, disables telemetry, etc, is also a type of hardening th eproject offers. That being said, security hardening against exploits and vulnurabilities are still in scope and also covered as much as possible.
In the not soo far future hopefully, there will be build targets for package formats so you can just build and install. For now, in development, you have to do your tests and installation manually. Fortunately, there is literally nothing to install almost. There is a firefox policy. To enable this policy, copy it to /etc/firefox/policies. If the folder does not exist create it.
