WEBVTT 00:00.390 --> 00:08.010 Where we throw primacy into the mix with security then we have to start to look towards Linux and BSD 00:08.010 --> 00:09.880 type distributions. 00:09.900 --> 00:12.450 Are there windows or mac are pretty solid for security. 00:12.450 --> 00:15.020 They are weak for privacy. 00:15.090 --> 00:20.880 Linux and BSD type distributions are going to give you security and privacy but you're going to have 00:20.880 --> 00:29.540 to sacrifice interoperability and usability like you won't be able to use Photoshop or Microsoft Office. 00:29.610 --> 00:34.350 But there are of course alternatives to use within these operating systems. 00:34.350 --> 00:40.020 But also I'm perhaps casting too much of a dark shadow because it's possible to use multiple operating 00:40.020 --> 00:43.640 systems without too much hassle using virtual machines. 00:43.680 --> 00:48.220 As I've shown you can get up and running using Linux in no time in this way. 00:48.300 --> 00:54.840 And also with live operating systems and you can get access to other operating systems pretty easily 00:55.200 --> 00:57.940 which we also cover later on in the course. 00:57.990 --> 01:03.480 There are three standard distributions are recommended for modest security and privacy needs. 01:03.660 --> 01:08.700 These are Debian open BSD and Arch Linux. 01:08.700 --> 01:15.390 Some of you may not be too up to speed with any of the laptop operating system other than Windows and 01:15.390 --> 01:17.950 possibly Apple Mac OSX. 01:18.030 --> 01:23.730 Briefly if you're not aware there are many many operating systems that have evolved in some way from 01:23.730 --> 01:32.960 the mid-1960s operating system called Unix including my recommended Debian open BSD and Arch Linux. 01:33.030 --> 01:39.600 And just quickly to get you up to speed you can see here the Unix Linux history tree and right at the 01:39.600 --> 01:42.420 top there is Unix. 01:42.420 --> 01:51.180 So if we zoom in a little bit and we can see here starting in the 1960s with the Unix type operating 01:51.180 --> 01:56.910 systems and then these have eventually evolved into other operating systems. 01:56.940 --> 02:01.980 Here you can see BSD which is where open BSD came from. 02:02.020 --> 02:08.430 Then you have the beginning of Linux and the next is a completely free piece of software started by 02:08.430 --> 02:13.320 Linus and supported by thousands of programmers worldwide. 02:13.350 --> 02:17.930 So if you go further down and we can see more and more. 02:18.060 --> 02:20.120 And here we get to Debian which is another one. 02:20.120 --> 02:27.240 I recommended an offshoot of Linux would be things like android that would be familiar with chrome OSS. 02:27.270 --> 02:35.470 Interestingly you can also see Apple Mac OSX here which is a derivative from BSD. 02:35.700 --> 02:43.680 So all of these would be Unix like operating systems and there really Unix like operating systems and 02:43.830 --> 02:51.000 enty and Windows is different to all these because it is based on the anti kernel which was developed 02:51.000 --> 02:52.250 by Microsoft. 02:52.260 --> 02:58.680 When you see the desktops of these Unix like operating systems the desktop is based on the desktop environment 02:58.680 --> 03:04.170 that has been chosen and most often you can actually change that to one that you prefer. 03:04.170 --> 03:14.040 Examples of these desktop environments include known Katie x FC mate Cinamon and elex D and be afraid 03:14.040 --> 03:15.960 of the Unix type operating systems. 03:15.960 --> 03:20.110 They are different but you can get to grips with them if you persist. 03:20.110 --> 03:26.330 And if you're familiar with Mac OS X there as you can see is a BSD derivative so you'll be somewhat 03:26.330 --> 03:29.750 familiar with the command line interface.
