Pass the SALT 2026

In bed with Qubes OS, hands-on workshop
2026-06-30 , Room LW112

This workshop begins by introducing the fundamental principles behind Qubes OS. We’ll cover the entire process, from installation and configuration to common challenges and practical solutions.

We'll then explore various aspects of Qubes OS through demonstrations, hands-on labs, and exercises using pre-installed virtualized instances available to attendees.

Participants will leave with practical and operational knowledge that will enable them, maybe, to switch to Qubes OS as their main operating system.

Experienced users are also welcome to join and share their perspectives, along with tips and tricks of their own.
