I don't like this project at all to be honest.
First thing is that it's closed source, which means he can prove exactly
*nothing* to me in terms of security. As long as I can't check, I don't
believe. Sorry.
Second: He writes it's hacking proof, which is impossible to proof. Yes,
maybe it's hard to hack, but here again: We can't know. Nobody besides
Kaspersky can. And as long as this is the case, I won't think better of it
than I do from Cisco and others.
Kaspersky Software had some problems with security when itself should make
your systems more secure, which doesn't make it any better.
Time will proof. Maybe it's an alternative OS for routers, switches and IoT
stuff, but in my opinion its not better than everything else out there, if
its not even worse.
I'd prefer Subgraph (Already was a topic in this mailing list) or OpenBSD
as base / template.
And: Probably nothing will run on that Kaspersky OS, because its coded from
scratch. No browser, no email client etc. You would need to port all this
software to KasperskyOS, or develop it from scratch aswell, and I think is
no practical approach, for a lot of different reasons.
