+# BlackwallOS
+
+BlackwallOS is an immutable Linux distribution designed to effectively defend against certain high-threat-level attacks (such as so-called "evil maid" attacks), as well as stop any malicious code from gaining persistence. It is based on the design and principles of [ParticleOS](https://github.com/systemd/particleos).
