About

A live buildroot based Linux distribution designed for managing secrets offline.

Built for those of us that want to be -really- sure our most important secrets are managed in a clean environment with an "air gap" between us and the internet with high integrity on the supply chain of the firmware and OS used.

Uses

  • Generate GPG keychain
  • Store/Restore gpg keychain to security token such as a Yubikey or Nitrokey
  • Signing cryptocurrency transactions
  • Generate/backup BIP39 universal cryptocurrency wallet seed
  • Store/Restore BIP39 seed to a hardware wallet such as a Trezor or Ledger

Features

  • Determinsitic iso generation for multi-party code->binary verification
  • Small footprint (< 100MB)
  • Immutable and Diskless: runs from initramfs
  • Network support and most drivers removed to minimize exfiltration vectors

  • docker 18+

Hardware

  • Recommended: PC running coreboot-heads
    • Allows for signed builds, and verification of signed sd card payloads
