Subject: Comparing Guix containers and firejail
Date: Tue, 3 May 2022 22:10:41 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <N1AXxwC--3-2@tutanota.com> (raw)

Hi Guix,

Someone on firejail Github discussions [1] wants to know the difference between guix containers and firejail.

1. How does guix shell --container compare to firejail in terms of sandboxing/security? Are guix containers intended to be secure?

2. Containers are still experimental, are there any features that could be added to increase security?

Thanks!
