And it's a proper way to use computer nowadays. Apart from high-overhead solutions like VMs and containers, there are seamless and maintenance-free solutions (after the initial setup): - systemd service hardening [0] [1] pretty powerful, but it's a blacklist approach - whack-a-mole - AppArmor [2] Whitelist, proactive approach. Contrary to SElinux, it's not a programming language, and could be grasped pretty quickly. I made a tool to easily convert AA logs into usable rules.
