--- Begin Message ---Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : cappsule Version : 1.0? Upstream Author : Quarkslab * URL : https://cappsule.github.io/ * License : GPL-2(+?) Programming Lang: C Description : hypervisor which virtualizes any software on-the-fly into lightweight VMs Cappsule is a new kind of hypervisor developed by Quarkslab. Its goal is to virtualize any software on the fly (e.g. web browser, office suite, media player) into lightweight VMs called cappsules. Attacks are confined inside cappsules and therefore don’t have any impact on the host OS. Applications don’t need to be repackaged, and their usage remain the same for the end user: it’s completely transparent. Moreover, the OS doesn’t need to be reinstalled nor modified. Basically, it protects computers against remote software attacks and makes the assumption that the hardware isn’t backdoored. If this assumption doesn’t fulfil your expectation or if you’re concerned about physical attacks, Qubes OS might be a better choice. -- I am not sure I would package this myself just yet, but it could be interesting to see where this goes. I am worried about such reviews from a usability perspective: https://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20161219#cappsule There are .deb packages here: https://cappsule.github.io/download/ .... but they seem to have serious issues, according to the review.. Source code is on the usual github silo.
