I am going to ask if I may use linux for work. We are using windows but there is nothing that couldn’t be done on linux. Privately, I am mainly a fedora user but I’d be happy with any OS and DE or wm. What do I need to look out for when I suggest an OS? What does a computer/ linux/DE need in order to be ready for enterprise workstation? Will I only have a user and no sudo rights? May I install all flatpak apps? Does the admin have to be able to remote ssh?
Also, they will likely not appreciate having a lone user with a unique attack surface.
They will say, while simultaneously ignoring every NIST recommendation
We don’t ignore them. We scope out implementation plans constantly, it’s just when they hit the MBA managers desk they tend to end up in the shredder.
