Re: [Trisquel-users] securing trisquel

That is actually a very good question that I have been wondering. With the  
wireless system inside a computer being like an invisible bridge to connect  
other systems, it might not be totally paranoid to think that a hardware hack  
could attack a computer through that. I am not talking about "service X  
running and listening to data coming from other PC". I mean like "sending  
certain signals that would make the hardware itself react in certain ways,  
enabling certain spying activity". But for that the only solution would be  
open-source hardware with a thorough security audit.
Or maybe the NSA guys know :P
Anyway, for now, the best is to have ufw configured to deny all incoming  
connections. Disable remote access and maybe install DenyHosts. No more ideas  
:S
