Overview

Built for the people on
the front line.

Arcline Workstation pairs a hardened base with the tools analysts and security-minded developers use every day — without the telemetry that most desktops quietly ship.

KDE Plasma desktop

A lightweight, fully configurable desktop — tuned for long working sessions.

Privacy-hardened browser

A browser profile locked down out of the box — no tracking, no telemetry, no surprises.

Secrets scanning

gitleaks and trufflehog pre-configured — catch leaked keys before they ship.

Dev toolchains ready

Go, Rust, Python, and Node.js toolchains pre-configured. Git, Make, and LLVM/Clang included.

Forensics-friendly

Tooling and a disk layout that make analysis and evidence handling straightforward.

Hardened base

The same hardened Debian base, btrfs snapshots, and default-deny firewall as every edition.

What's Included

An analyst's desk, pre-configured.

Compliance-ready by default

Arcline Workstation ships CIS Benchmark-aligned by default, with OpenSCAP scanning mapped toward HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 control families. The OS itself isn't certified — only audited deployments can be — but the defaults give you a running start.

Other Editions

One hardened base. Three editions.

Every edition shares the same hardened Debian base and zero-telemetry guarantee.
