(While I am aware of a Whonix Host ISO which the website claims is coming soon, this idea has been around for a little under 6 years now and until an ETA comes out which still does not exist, I will have to compromise)
This probably sounds very stupid, and I am aware of the reasons why Whonix is what it is and why Kicksecure is what it is. While my threat model recommends Whonix quite heavily, my use case means that I cannot use a Virtual Machine, I don’t want to hear any questions on this matter, so I’ll get into what I do know.
According to the Whonix-Kicksecure Comparison Table, the only difference is that Whonix routes ALL traffic through Tor using the Gateway. Without this Workstation can’t connect to the internet, so it works like a kill switch. I know that it is possible to do this with most if not all Linux Distributions, but it is just that Whonix is a Virtual Machine and it is much more secure in its Tor Network guarantee. If this is the case, then how can I make Kicksecure act similarly (route all traffick through Tor with a kill switch for that security) to be as close to Whonix as possible in the form of a Bootable OS.
And yes, I acknowledge that it will be as good as Whonix but once a VM will not fit my use case and I will only use it if the option I seek is 100% impossible, which I know it is not.
