DebianParl used by Greens/EFA
Pilot project about trusted email.
Project
Project is deployed by the Greens/EFA coalition at the European Parliament, in collaboration with DG-ITEC (institutional sysadmins) and DebianParl developers.
10 parliamentary workers - politically elected and staffers - are equiped with a laptop running the email profile of DebianParl, and guided in using its security features to establish trusted communication.
European Parliament has 3 networks: wired, EP-EXT wifi and EP-PRIVATE wifi. Wired network is permitted only for institutional machines, and EP-EXT wifi is temporarily turned off as reaction to a recent spoofing attack. EP-PRIVATE wifi requires certificate, but current certificate issuing procedure explicitly exclude Linux, which means certificates for the pilot project need to be issued as an exception.
