Since all Debian developers have equal rights, it cannot be controlled by a single company. Debian is community and consensus-driven and has a democratic governance structure.
You can be part of the Debian community even if you are not a programmer or sysadmin. The software is co-produced by hundreds of volunteers from all over the world. The Debian developers provide security updates for all packages over their life whenever possible.ĭebian is not only a Linux operating system. We provide a reasonable default configuration for every package. Users like its stability and reliability since 1993. In most cases, this partition is used as a physical volume for LVM so as to protect several partitions (LVM logical volumes) with the same encryption key, including the swap partition (see sidebar SECURITY Encrypted swap partition).Debian is a Linux distribution composed of free and open-source software developed by the community-supported Debian Project.ĭebian is an operating system for various devices, including laptops, desktops, and servers. Once this step has been completed, and you have returned to the partitioning tool menu, a new partition will be available in an “encrypted volume”, which you can then configure just like any other partition. The software will then propose to initialize the physical volume with random data (making the localization of the real data more difficult), and will ask you to enter an “encryption passphrase”, which you will have to enter every time you boot your computer in order to access the content of the encrypted partition. After partitioning the disk containing the physical volume to be made, choose “Configure encrypted volumes”. To do so, select a partition and indicate that it is to be used as a “physical volume for encryption”.
To create an encrypted partition, you must first assign an available partition for this purpose.
