How do people secure their Linux computer?
With both a development environment, games and my personal documents on the same machine, I'm starting to worry about security and separating things into different sandboxes. How are people doing this nowadays?
My method is very primitive: I have separate physical machines for work and for personal use. And I don't mix the two. The work machine uses my employer's security policy (When I use a freelancing laptop, it is encrypted and uses ubikey for unlocking. I install a new OS for a new job). This way I don't have to worry about visiting not so reputable sites through company VPN or uploading a company document to 4chan accidentally... because these things are just separated as hard as possible.
VMs, docker containers. it depends on the sw and how much you trust it
