Set up ProxyVm+VPN Hardening

[Risdska]

I found an very Interesting Hardening Concept on Github: GitHub - tasket/Qubes-vpn-support: VPN configuration in Qubes OS

The guide is outdated but I am not able to upgrade it to 4.2, has anyone the time and will to make a working version for 4.2 or any suggestions on how to?

I planned to use the Wireguard Protocol.

Thanks in Advance

Welcome here!

Try that

Wireguard VPN setup

Good news, with fedora-38 the network manager supports Wireguard out of the box! The only thing required are extra firewall rules in the VPN qube, as explained in the community documentation about VPN. What you’ll need This guide assumes you are using a VPN service that has wireguard support, most of them do, but you can also add your own if you have a server.

Thanks for the quick anwser

I have seen and tried that guide it works very good!

The key difference in the guide I send is that it configures a proxy gate for the VPN- configured wich blocks all possible leaks etc. ,like the sys-whonix for the whonix-workstation.
This would add a strong anti leak protection and also act as an additional firewall before the VPN-Qube. Not requiring additional firewalls.

This is my Understandig of the guide please correct me if I am wrong, thanks.

If you just allow the vpn’s ip in the firewall rules, i don’t see where you could have leaks.
Perhaps someone could confirm it? @solene the writer?

Yes, using the qubes firewall to block everything except the endpoint host + port would guarantee there is no leak.
