Jartop was written in Java, and runs in a JVM, inherently making it secure.
But there are many other security measures built in:
- AES-128/256 with SHA-128/256 hashing (Encryption)
- Secure wiping of account after so many failed attempts (Forensics)
- Secure and private browser (Browsing)
- Account hashing (Integrity)
- Open source (Trustworthy)
You can choose a wallpaper for your taste, or pick a favorite color for your theme. You can also add your contacts, passwords, calenders and such to your user.
You start out by creating a user at the login menu, then just use it as you would with a regular computer! Just make sure to remember your login password, there is zero way for anyone (not even government officals) to retrieve them!
We have long term plans for Jartop. Many of those plans are big, and some are small. We have a trello page with all the currently planned, and still considering features for the future of Jartop

Currently, you need Java 8+ downloaded on you pc before Jartop can run. It is planned for this requirement to be removed in the future however.
Currently the hardware requirements need at least 500 mb RAM and at least a 720p display.
