Scanned it. Seems like Sailfish have some security, but it can probably be hacked. At least if you have physical access to the device or SSH access. Nothing in place to hinder the user to replace the OS with something else (most of us see that as feature).

So as far as I understand, no big suprises.

Would be interesting to here the talk.

Interesting slides. Apparently Jolla is very much aware of and experienced with security stuff.

Good piece of information there, although not much we didn't know already. They did miss some stuff tough, like getting apps to run as root, without password. This is actually quite easy with a small C code. But, good information, all in one place
