Qubes - A Highly Secure OS Powered By Xen Hypervisor

,----[ Quote ]
| Qubes is an open source operating system 
| based on Linux, which is designed to provide 
| strong security for desktop computing. Its 
| unique selling point is that all applications 
| that are run on Qubes is sand-boxed from each 
| other.
| 
| This is achieved by way of virtualization of 
| all applications using Xen Hypervisor.
| 
| Computer systems usually provide OS security 
| in three basic ways, namely -
| 
|    1. Security by correctness,
|    2. Security by obscurity, and
|    3. Security by isolation.
