If you're looking for portability and security in your computing, why not try running a system straight from a USB drive you can carry around in your pocket.

Tails stands for The Amnesic Incognito Live System, which is a reference to how your activities are gone for good as soon as you unplug the USB drive from the computer it's attached to and move on. It's based on the Debian Linux distribution, and it should work just fine with most computers from the last decade or so.

To get this up and running, you need a USB stick with a minimum 8 GB of capacity. With that in hand, head toand select the operating system that you're using to set it up. Follow the instructions on the screen and you'll get a USB image file around 1 GB in size, which you'll then need to transfer to the flash drive itself..

When the setup has been completed, you can plug your Tails USB stick into just about any 64-bit PC with a spare port. It'll also work on Mac computers, but not those with the newest M1 series of chips . The computer you're connecting to should have at least 2 GB of RAM, and you should of course make sure it's not infected with any viruses or malware beforehand.
