Compartmentalization and Segmentation of services to different devices.
Compartmentalization and Segmentation of services to different devices.
What's the efficacy of compartmentalizing proprietary services to different devices?
Some streaming apps are most efficient and fluid on Apple devices. I would say it would be a wise thing to use the apps on the Apple devices like Apple TV or iPad rather than put the apps on your Pixel running a FOSS operating system, where it can possibly collect more information about you.
I'd like some more thoughts on this idea.
Depending on your security profile different devices make a lot of sense. A daily driver device for using the internet, and a secure device for banking.
More cumbersome of course to have two devices. But if you only do your sensitive things on your locked down device, your less exposed, have less risk surface..
Just make sure you keep your lockdown device updated
I have a work laptop that is insanely locked down. Administered by work thankfully
I have a gaming computer just for gaming, cuz you load a lot of random shit when you game. Plus a lot of the gaming software drivers just feel sketchy
I have a qubes laptop for personal use, that lets me isolate various concerns.
And I mostly drive an m2 Mac for normal daily stuff
So separation of concerns gives you certain confidence that you're not cross-contaminating. But you have to be diligent about not using your lockdown device. Like don't watch porn on your work computer. Don't plug the same USB stick into multiple computers.That sort of stuff. Don't cross contaminate
