I wished distributions would include an application firewall by default. This is something that should be prioritized in my opinion. Also, I would like to see some sort of permission management per application, like you have it on mobile operating systems like Android and ios.
- pabs3 3y agoDebian 12 now includes opensnitch, but it isn't installed by default: https://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/OpenSnitch_available_in_Debian_Sid_and_Bookworm.html https://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/OpenSnitch_available... For permission management you want all your apps from outside the distro (like Flathub), or you can manually use bubblewrap or firejail to create custom sandboxes.
- m4lvin 3y agoI think PureOS includes GUFW by default. Does that count or do you mean something else by application firewall?
- I_am_tiberius 3y agoI mean something else. An application firewall is something like opensnitch where you can block processes from communicating with specific external domains/ips.
