[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated virtual machines. Each VM is called a *Qube* and you can assign each Qube a level of trust based on its purpose. As Qubes OS provides security by using isolation, and only permitting actions on a per-case basis, it is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).

### Copying and Pasting Text
You can [copy and paste text](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) using `qvm-copy-to-vm` or the below instructions:
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the VM you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the VM to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination VM to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination VM to paste the contents in the buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### File Exchange
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one VM to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated virtual machines. Each VM is called a *Qube* and you can assign each Qube a level of trust based on its purpose. As Qubes OS provides security by using isolation, and only permitting actions on a per-case basis, it is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).

## How does Qubes OS work?
Qubes uses [compartmentalization](https://www.qubes-os.org/intro/) to keep the system secure. Qubes are created from templates, the defaults being for Fedora, Debian and [Whonix](../desktop.md#whonix). Qubes OS also allows you to create once-use [disposable](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-use-disposables/) virtual machines.

??? "The term *qubes* is gradually being updated to avoid referring to them as "virtual machines"."
Some of the information here and on the Qubes OS documentation may contain conflicting language as the "appVM" term is gradually being changed to "qube". Qubes are not entire virtual machines, but maintain similar functionalities to VMs.

## Why Should I use Qubes?
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong compartmentalization and security, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources.

A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS utilizes [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM (i.e., an "AdminVM") for controlling other guest VMs or Qubes on the host OS. Other VMs display individual application windows within Dom0's desktop environment. It allows you to color code windows based on trust levels and run apps that can interact with each other with very granular control.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated virtual machines. Each VM is called a *Qube* and you can assign each Qube a level of trust based on its purpose. As Qubes OS provides security by using isolation, and only permitting actions on a per-case basis, it is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).

### File Exchange
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one VM to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

1. Pulsa **Ctrl+C** para decirle a la máquina virtual en la que estás que quieres copiar algo.
2. Pulsa **Ctrl+Shift+C** para indicar a la VM que ponga este búfer a disposición del portapapeles global.
3. Pulsa **Ctrl+Shift+V** en la máquina virtual de destino para que el portapapeles global esté disponible.
4. Pulsa **Ctrl+V** en la máquina virtual de destino para pegar el contenido en el búfer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.

4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### Intercambio de archivos
Para copiar y pegar archivos y directorios (carpetas) de una VM a otra, puedes utilizar la opción **Copiar a otra AppVM...** o **Mover a otra AppVM...**. La diferencia es que la opción **Mover** borrará el archivo original. Cualquiera de las dos opciones protegerá tu portapapeles de ser filtrado a cualquier otro Qubes. Esto es más seguro que la transferencia de archivos con air-gap, porque un ordenador con air-gap seguirá viéndose obligado a analizar particiones o sistemas de archivos. Esto no es necesario con el sistema de copia inter-qube.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) est un système d'exploitation open-source qui utilise l'hyperviseur [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) pour fournir une sécurité forte pour l'informatique de bureau par le biais de machines virtuelles isolées. Chaque VM est appelée un *Qube* et vous pouvez attribuer à chaque Qube un niveau de confiance en fonction de son objectif. Étant donné que Qubes OS assure la sécurité en utilisant l'isolation et en n'autorisant des actions qu'au cas par cas, il est à l'opposé de [l'énumération de méchanceté](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).
[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated *qubes*, (which are Virtual Machines). You can assign each *qube* a level of trust based on its purpose. Qubes OS provides security by using isolation. It only permits actions on a per-case basis and therefore is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).
## Comment fonctionne Qubes OS ?
Qubes utilise la [compartimentation](https://www.qubes-os.org/intro/) pour assurer la sécurité du système. Les Qubes sont créés à partir de modèles, les valeurs par défaut étant pour Fedora, Debian et [Whonix](../desktop.md#whonix). Qubes OS vous permet également de créer des machines virtuelles à usage unique [jetable](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-use-disposables/) .

Qubes OS also allows you to create once-use [disposable](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-use-disposables/) *qubes*.
??? "The term *qubes* is gradually being updated to avoid referring to them as "virtual machines"."
Some of the information here and on the Qubes OS documentation may contain conflicting language as the "appVM" term is gradually being changed to "qube". Qubes are not entire virtual machines, but maintain similar functionalities to VMs.

Chaque application Qubes possède une [bordure colorée](https://www.qubes-os.org/screenshots/) qui peut vous aider à garder une trace de la machine virtuelle dans laquelle elle est exécutée. Vous pouvez, par exemple, utiliser une couleur spécifique pour votre navigateur bancaire, tout en utilisant une couleur différente pour un navigateur général non fiable.
Each qube has a [colored border](https://www.qubes-os.org/screenshots/) that can help you keep track of the domain in which it runs.

<figcaption>Bordures de fenêtres de Qubes, Crédit : Captures d'écran Qubes</figcaption>
## Pourquoi devrais-je utiliser Qubes ?
Qubes OS est utile si votre [modèle de menace](../basics/threat-modeling.md) exige une compartimentation et une sécurité fortes, par exemple si vous pensez ouvrir des fichiers non fiables provenant de sources non fiables. Une raison typique d'utiliser Qubes OS est d'ouvrir des documents provenant de sources inconnues.
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS utilise la VM Xen [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) (c'est-à-dire une "AdminVM") pour contrôler d'autres VM invitées ou Qubes sur l'OS hôte. Les autres VMs affichent des fenêtres d'applications individuelles dans l'environnement de bureau de Dom0. Cela vous permet d'attribuer un code de couleur aux fenêtres en fonction des niveaux de confiance et d'exécuter des applications qui peuvent interagir les unes avec les autres avec un contrôle très granulaire.
Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Copier et coller du texte
Vous pouvez [copier et coller du texte](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) en utilisant `qvm-copy-to-vm` ou les instructions ci-dessous :
1. Appuyez sur **Ctrl+C** pour indiquer à la VM dans laquelle vous vous trouvez que vous souhaitez copier quelque chose.
2. Appuyez sur **Ctrl+Maj+C** pour dire à la VM de rendre ce tampon disponible au presse-papiers global.
3. Appuyez sur **Ctrl+Shift+V** dans la VM de destination pour rendre le presse-papiers global disponible.
4. Appuyez sur **Ctrl+V** dans la VM de destination pour coller le contenu dans le tampon.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### Échange de fichiers
Pour copier et coller des fichiers et des répertoires (dossiers) d'une VM à l'autre, vous pouvez utiliser l'option **Copier vers une autre AppVM...** ou **Déplacer vers une autre AppVM...**. La différence est que l'option **Déplacer** supprime le fichier d'origine. L'une ou l'autre de ces options protégera votre presse-papiers contre les fuites vers d'autres Qubes. C'est plus sûr que le transfert de fichiers par ordinateur non connectés car un ordinateur sera toujours obligé d'analyser les partitions ou les systèmes de fichiers. Cela n'est pas nécessaire avec le système de copie inter-qube.
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one *qube* to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. La différence est que l'option **Déplacer** supprime le fichier d'origine. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other *qubes*. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer. An air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. Cela n'est pas nécessaire avec le système de copie inter-qube.
??? info "Les AppVMs ou les qubes n'ont pas leur propre système de fichiers"
??? "Qubes do not have their own filesystems."
Vous pouvez [copier et déplacer des fichiers](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-move-files/) entre les Qubes. Ce faisant, les changements ne sont pas immédiats et peuvent être facilement annulés en cas d'accident.
You can [copy and move files](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-move-files/) between *qubes*.

You can create and delete files, but these changes are ephemeral.

1. הקש על **Ctrl+C** כדי לומר ל-VM שאתה נמצא בו שאתה רוצה להעתיק משהו.
2. הקש על **Ctrl+Shift+C** כדי לומר ל-VM להפוך את המאגר הזה לזמין ללוח הגלובלי.
3. הקש על **Ctrl+Shift+V** ב-VM היעד כדי להפוך את הלוח הגלובלי לזמין.
4. הקש על **Ctrl+V** ב-VM היעד כדי להדביק את התוכן במאגר.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### החלפת קבצים
כדי להעתיק ולהדביק קבצים וספריות (תיקיות) מ-VM אחד לאחר, אתה יכול להשתמש באפשרות **העתק ל-AppVM אחר...** או **עבור ל-AppVM אחר...**. ההבדל הוא שהאפשרות ה**העבר** תמחק את הקובץ המקורי. כל אחת מהאפשרויות תגן על הלוח שלך מפני דליפה לכל Qubes אחר. זה מאובטח יותר מהעברת קבצים עם רווח אוויר מכיוון שמחשב עם רווח אוויר עדיין ייאלץ לנתח מחיצות או מערכות קבצים. זה לא נדרש עם מערכת ההעתקה inter-qube.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated virtual machines. Each VM is called a *Qube* and you can assign each Qube a level of trust based on its purpose. As Qubes OS provides security by using isolation, and only permitting actions on a per-case basis, it is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).

Qubes OS also allows you to create once-use [disposable](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-use-disposables/) virtual machines.

## Why Should I use Qubes?
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong compartmentalization and security, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources.
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS utilizes [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM (i.e., an "AdminVM") for controlling other guest VMs or Qubes on the host OS. Other VMs display individual application windows within Dom0's desktop environment. It allows you to color code windows based on trust levels and run apps that can interact with each other with very granular control.

There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Copying and Pasting Text
You can [copy and paste text](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) using `qvm-copy-to-vm` or the below instructions:
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the VM you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the VM to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination VM to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination VM to paste the contents in the buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### File Exchange
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one VM to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

Qubes OS berguna jika [ancaman model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) Anda membutuhkan kompartementalisasi dan keamanan yang kuat, misalnya jika Anda merasa akan membuka file yang tidak terpercaya dari sumber yang tidak terpercaya. Alasan umum untuk menggunakan Qubes OS adalah untuk membuka dokumen dari sumber yang tidak dikenal.

Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Menyalin dan Menempel Teks
Anda dapat [menyalin dan menempelkan teks](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) menggunakan `qvm-copy-to-vm` atau dengan petunjuk di bawah ini:
1. Tekan **Ctrl+C** untuk memberi tahu VM yang sedang Anda gunakan bahwa Anda ingin menyalin sesuatu.
2. Tekan **Ctrl+Shift+C** untuk memberi tahu VM agar buffer ini tersedia di clipboard global.
3. Tekan **Ctrl+Shift+V** di VM dengan tujuan untuk membuat papan klip global tersedia.
4. Tekan **Ctrl+V** di VM tujuan untuk menempelkan konten di buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### Pertukaran File
Untuk menyalin dan menempelkan file dan direktori (folder) dari satu VM ke VM lainnya, Anda dapat menggunakan opsi **Copy to Other AppVM...** atau **Move to Other AppVM...**. Perbedaannya adalah bahwa opsi **Pindahkan** akan menghapus file asli. Opsi mana pun akan melindungi papan klip Anda agar tidak bocor ke Qubes lainnya. Ini lebih aman daripada transfer file melalui celah udara karena komputer yang memiliki celah udara masih akan dipaksa untuk mengurai partisi atau sistem file. Hal itu tidak diperlukan dengan sistem penyalinan antar-qube.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) è un sistema operativo open source che utiilzza l'ipervisore [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) per fornire una forte sicurezza per l'informatica desktop, tramite macchine virtuali isolate. Ogni macchina virtuale è chiamata *Qube* e, a ognuna di esse, puoi assegnare un livello di fiducia, basato sul suo scopo. Poiché Qubes OS fornisce sicurezza tramite l'isolamento, e permette le azioni soltanto a seconda del caso, è l'opposto dell'[enumerazione delle minacce](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).
[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated *qubes*, (which are Virtual Machines).

## Come funziona Qubes OS?
Qubes utilizza la [compartimentazione](https://www.qubes-os.org/intro/) per mantenere il sistema sicuro. I Qube sono creati da modelli, predefiniti per Fedora, Debian e [Whonix](../desktop.md#whonix). Inoltre, Qubes OS ti consente di creare mcchine virtuali [monouso](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-use-disposables/) e a uso singolo.

Qubes OS also allows you to create once-use [disposable](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-use-disposables/) *qubes*.
??? "The term *qubes* is gradually being updated to avoid referring to them as "virtual machines"."
Some of the information here and on the Qubes OS documentation may contain conflicting language as the "appVM" term is gradually being changed to "qube". Qubes are not entire virtual machines, but maintain similar functionalities to VMs.
![Architettura Qubes](../assets/img/qubes/qubes-trust-level-architecture.png)
<figcaption>Architettura di Qubes, Crediti: Introduzione a Qubes OS</figcaption>
Ogni applicazione di Qubes ha un [bordo colorato](https://www.qubes-os.org/screenshots/), che può aiutarti a tenere traccia della macchina virtuale in esecuzione. Ad esempio, potresti utilizzare un colore specifico per le operazioni bancarie, utilizzandone uno differente per un browser generico non affidabile.
Each qube has a [colored border](https://www.qubes-os.org/screenshots/) that can help you keep track of the domain in which it runs. Ad esempio, potresti utilizzare un colore specifico per le operazioni bancarie, utilizzandone uno differente per un browser generico non affidabile.

<figcaption>Bordi delle finestre di Qubes, Crediti: Screenshot di Qubes</figcaption>
## Perché dovrei usare Qubes?
Qubes OS è utile se il tuo [modello di minaccia](../basics/threat-modeling.md) richiede un forte compartimentazione e sicurezza, ad esempio, se ritieni che aprirai file non attendibili da fonti non sicure. Un tipico motivo per utilizzare Qubes OS è aprire documenti da fonti sconosciute.
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS utilizza la VM di Xen [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) (cioè, "AdminVM"), per controllare altre VM ospiti o Qubes sul sistema operativo del host. Le altre VM mostrano le finestre delle singole applicazioni, nell'ambiente desktop di Dom0. Ti consente di codificare per colore le finestre, secondo i livelli di fiducia e di eseguire le app che possono interagire tra loro, con un controllo molto granulare.
Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Copiare e incollare il testo
Puoi [copiare e incollare il testo](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) utilizzando `qvm-copy-to-vm` o le istruzioni seguenti:
1. Premi **Ctrl+C** per comunicare alla macchina virtuale in cui ti trovi che vuoi copiare qualcosa.
2. Premi **Ctrl+Shift+C** per comunicare alla macchina virtuale di rendere disponibile questo buffer negli appunti globali.
3. Premi **Ctrl+Shift+V** nella macchina virtuale di destinazione per rendere disponibili gli appunti globali.
4. Premi **Ctrl+V** nella macchina virtuale di destinazione per incollare il contenuto nel buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### Scambio di file
Per copiare e incollare file e directory (cartelle) da una macchina virtuale all'altra, si può usare l'opzione **Copy to Other AppVM...** o **Move to Other AppVM...**. La differenza è che l'opzione **Move** eliminerà il file originale. Entrambe le opzioni proteggeranno i tuoi appunti dall'essere trapelati a qualsiasi altra Qube. Ciò è più sicuro del trasferimento di file isolaato, poiché un computer isolato sarà comunque forzato a recuperare partizioni o file di sistema. Ciò non è necessario con il sistema di copia tra Qube.
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one *qube* to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. La differenza è che l'opzione **Move** eliminerà il file originale. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other *qubes*. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer. An air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. Ciò non è necessario con il sistema di copia tra Qube.
??? info "Le AppVM o Qube non hanno i propri file di sistema"
??? "Qubes do not have their own filesystems."
Puoi [copiare e spostare i file](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-move-files/), tra Qube. Così facendo, le modifiche non sono effettuate immediatamente e sono facilmente annullabili, in caso di incidente.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated virtual machines. Each VM is called a *Qube* and you can assign each Qube a level of trust based on its purpose. As Qubes OS provides security by using isolation, and only permitting actions on a per-case basis, it is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).

## Waarom zou ik Qubes gebruiken?
Qubes OS is nuttig als jouw [bedreigingsmodel](../basics/threat-modeling.md) een sterke compartimentering en beveiliging vereist, bijvoorbeeld als je denkt dat je onvertrouwde bestanden van onvertrouwde bronnen zult openen. Een typische reden om Qubes OS te gebruiken is het openen van documenten van onbekende bronnen.
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS maakt gebruik van [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM (dwz een "AdminVM") voor het besturen van andere gast-VM 's of Qubes op het host-besturingssysteem. Andere VM 's geven individuele toepassingsvensters weer binnen de desktopomgeving van Dom0. Hiermee kun je vensters een kleurcode geven op basis van vertrouwensniveaus en apps draaien die met elkaar kunnen communiceren met zeer fijnmazige controle.
Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Tekst kopiëren en plakken
Je kunt [tekst kopiëren en plakken](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) met behulp van `qvm-copy-to-vm` of de onderstaande instructies:
1. Druk op **Ctrl+C** om de VM waarin je je bevindt te vertellen dat je iets wilt kopiëren.
2. Druk op **Ctrl+Shift+C** om de VM te vertellen deze buffer beschikbaar te maken voor het algemene klembord.
3. Druk op **Ctrl+Shift+V** in de doel-VM om het globale klembord beschikbaar te maken.
4. Druk op **Ctrl+V** in de bestemmings-VM om de inhoud in de buffer te plakken.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### Bestandsuitwisseling
Om bestanden en mappen (mappen) van de ene VM naar de andere te kopiëren en te plakken, kunt je de optie **Kopiëren naar andere AppVM...** of **Verplaatsen naar andere AppVM...**gebruiken. Het verschil is dat de optie **Verplaatsen** het oorspronkelijke bestand verwijdert. Beide opties beschermen jouw klembord tegen uitlekken naar andere Qubes. Dit is veiliger dan bestandsoverdracht via air-gapped, omdat een air-gapped computer nog steeds gedwongen wordt partities of bestandssystemen te parseren. Dat is niet nodig met het inter-qube kopieersysteem.
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one *qube* to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. Het verschil is dat de optie **Verplaatsen** het oorspronkelijke bestand verwijdert. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other *qubes*. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer. An air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. Dat is niet nodig met het inter-qube kopieersysteem.
??? info "AppVM's of qubes hebben geen eigen bestandssystemen"
??? "Qubes do not have their own filesystems."
Je kunt [bestanden kopiëren en verplaatsen](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-move-files/) tussen Qubes. Daarbij worden de wijzigingen niet onmiddellijk aangebracht en kunnen ze bij een ongeval gemakkelijk ongedaan worden gemaakt.

You can create and delete files, but these changes are ephemeral.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated virtual machines. Each VM is called a *Qube* and you can assign each Qube a level of trust based on its purpose. As Qubes OS provides security by using isolation, and only permitting actions on a per-case basis, it is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).

## Why Should I use Qubes?
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong compartmentalization and security, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources.
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS utilizes [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM (i.e., an "AdminVM") for controlling other guest VMs or Qubes on the host OS. Other VMs display individual application windows within Dom0's desktop environment. It allows you to color code windows based on trust levels and run apps that can interact with each other with very granular control.
Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Copying and Pasting Text
You can [copy and paste text](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) using `qvm-copy-to-vm` or the below instructions:
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the VM you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the VM to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination VM to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination VM to paste the contents in the buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### File Exchange
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one VM to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

You can create and delete files, but these changes are ephemeral.

Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong compartmentalization and security, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources.
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS utilizes [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM (i.e., an "AdminVM") for controlling other guest VMs or Qubes on the host OS. Other VMs display individual application windows within Dom0's desktop environment. It allows you to color code windows based on trust levels and run apps that can interact with each other with very granular control.

There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Copying and Pasting Text
You can [copy and paste text](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) using `qvm-copy-to-vm` or the below instructions:
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the VM you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the VM to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination VM to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination VM to paste the contents in the buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### File Exchange
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one VM to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

## Почему мне стоит использовать Qubes?
Qubes OS полезна, если ваша [модель угроз](../basics/threat-modeling.md) требует сильного разделения и безопасности, например, если вы думаете, что будете открывать недоверенные файлы из недоверенных источников. Типичная причина использования Qubes OS - открытие документов из неизвестных источников.

Qubes OS использует ВМ [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen (т.е. "AdminVM") для управления другими гостевыми ВМ или Qubes на хостовой ОС. Другие ВМ отображают отдельные окна приложений в среде рабочего стола Dom0. Это позволяет вам выделять окна цветом в зависимости от уровня доверия и запускать приложения, которые могут взаимодействовать друг с другом с очень детальным контролем.
Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment.

### Копирование и вставка текста
Вы можете [копировать и вставлять текст](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/), используя `qvm-copy-to-vm` или приведенные ниже инструкции:
1. Нажмите **Ctrl+C**, чтобы сообщить ВМ, в которой вы находитесь, что вы хотите что-то скопировать.
2. Нажмите **Ctrl+Shift+C**, чтобы указать ВМ сделать этот буфер доступным для глобального буфера обмена.
3. Нажмите **Ctrl+Shift+V** в ВМ назначения, чтобы сделать доступным глобальный буфер обмена.
4. Нажмите **Ctrl+V** в целевой ВМ, чтобы вставить содержимое в буфер.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### Обмен файлами
Для копирования и вставки файлов и каталогов (папок) из одной ВМ в другую можно воспользоваться опцией **Copy to Other AppVM...** или **Move to Other AppVM...**. Разница в том, что опция **Move** удалит исходный файл. Любой из этих вариантов защитит ваш буфер обмена от утечки к другим Qubes. Это более безопасно, чем передача файлов по воздуху, поскольку компьютер с передачей по воздуху все равно будет вынужден парсить разделы или файловые системы. Этого не требуется при использовании системы копирования между несколькими Qubes.
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one *qube* to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. Разница в том, что опция **Move** удалит исходный файл. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other *qubes*. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer. An air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. Этого не требуется при использовании системы копирования между несколькими Qubes.

## Varför ska jag använda Qubes?
Qubes OS är användbart om din [hotmodell](../basics/threat-modeling.md) kräver stark uppdelning och säkerhet, t.ex. om du tror att du kommer att öppna opålitliga filer från opålitliga källor. En typisk anledning till att använda Qubes OS är att öppna dokument från okända källor.
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS använder [Dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM (dvs. en "AdminVM") för att kontrollera andra gäst-VM:er eller Qubes på värdoperativsystemet. Andra virtuella datorer visar individuella programfönster i Dom0: s skrivbordsmiljö. Det gör det möjligt att färgkoda fönster baserat på förtroendenivåer och köra appar som kan interagera med varandra med mycket detaljerad kontroll.
Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Kopiera och klistra in text
Du kan [kopiera och klistra in text](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) med hjälp av `qvm-copy-to-vm` eller nedanstående instruktioner:
1. Tryck på **Ctrl+C** för att tala om för den virtuella maskinen att du vill kopiera något.
2. Tryck på **Ctrl+Shift+C** för att be den virtuella maskinen att göra denna buffert tillgänglig för det globala klippbordet.
3. Tryck på **Ctrl+Shift+V** i destinations-VM för att göra det globala klippbordet tillgängligt.
4. Tryck på **Ctrl+V** i den virtuella maskinen för att klistra in innehållet i bufferten.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### Filutbyte
Om du vill kopiera och klistra in filer och kataloger (mappar) från en VM till en annan kan du använda alternativet **Kopiera till annan AppVM...** eller **Flytta till annan AppVM...**. Skillnaden är att alternativet **Move** raderar den ursprungliga filen. Båda alternativen skyddar ditt klippblock från att läcka till andra Qubes. Detta är säkrare än filöverföring med luftgranskning eftersom en dator med luftgranskning fortfarande tvingas analysera partitioner eller filsystem. Detta är inte nödvändigt med inter-qube-kopieringssystemet.
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one *qube* to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. Skillnaden är att alternativet **Move** raderar den ursprungliga filen. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other *qubes*. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer. An air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. Detta är inte nödvändigt med inter-qube-kopieringssystemet.

Du kan [kopiera och flytta filer] (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-move-files/) mellan Qubes. När du gör det görs inte ändringarna omedelbart och kan lätt ångras i händelse av en olycka.

[**Qubes OS**](../desktop.md#qubes-os) is an open-source operating system which uses the [Xen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xen) hypervisor to provide strong security for desktop computing through isolated virtual machines. Each VM is called a *Qube* and you can assign each Qube a level of trust based on its purpose. As Qubes OS provides security by using isolation, and only permitting actions on a per-case basis, it is the opposite of [badness enumeration](https://www.ranum.com/security/computer_security/editorials/dumb/).

Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Copying and Pasting Text
You can [copy and paste text](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) using `qvm-copy-to-vm` or the below instructions:
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the VM you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the VM to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination VM to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination VM to paste the contents in the buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### File Exchange
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one VM to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

You can [copy and move files](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-move-files/) between Qubes. When doing so the changes aren't immediately made and can be easily undone in case of an accident.

When doing so the changes aren't immediately made and can be easily undone in case of an accident. When you run a *qube*, it does not have a persistent filesystem. You can create and delete files, but these changes are ephemeral.
### Inter-VM Interactions

It is built on top of the Xen library *vchan*, which facilitates [isolation through policies](https://www.qubes-os.org/news/2020/06/22/new-qrexec-policy-system/).

There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### Copying and Pasting Text
You can [copy and paste text](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/) using `qvm-copy-to-vm` or the below instructions:
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the VM you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the VM to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination VM to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination VM to paste the contents in the buffer.
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### File Exchange
To copy and paste files and directories (folders) from one VM to another, you can use the option **Copy to Other AppVM...** or **Move to Other AppVM...**. The difference is that the **Move** option will delete the original file. Either option will protect your clipboard from being leaked to any other Qubes. This is more secure than air-gapped file transfer because an air-gapped computer will still be forced to parse partitions or file systems. That is not required with the inter-qube copy system.

You can [copy and move files](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-move-files/) between *qubes*. When doing so the changes aren't immediately made and can be easily undone in case of an accident. When you run a *qube*, it does not have a persistent filesystem. You can create and delete files, but these changes are ephemeral.
### Inter-VM Interactions
The [qrexec framework](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/qrexec/) is a core part of Qubes which allows virtual machine communication between domains. It is built on top of the Xen library *vchan*, which facilitates [isolation through policies](https://www.qubes-os.org/news/2020/06/22/new-qrexec-policy-system/).

## Qubes OS如何工作
Qubes 使用 [分區化](https://www.qubes-os.org/intro/) 來確保系統安全。 Qubes 從模板創建,預設為 Fedora、Debian 和 [Whonix](../desktop.md#whonix)。 Qubes OS還允許您創建一次性 [一次性](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-use-disposables/) 虛擬機器。

## 我爲什麼要使用Qubes
如果您的 [威脅模型](../basics/threat-modeling.md) 需要強大的分區和安全性,例如認為需要從不信任的來源開啟可疑檔案, Qubes OS 非常有用。 使用 Qubes OS 的某種典型原因是打開來自不明來源的文件。
Qubes OS is useful if your [threat model](../basics/threat-modeling.md) requires strong security and isolation, such as if you think you'll be opening untrusted files from untrusted sources. A typical reason for using Qubes OS is to open documents from unknown sources, but the idea is that if a single qube is compromised it won't affect the rest of the system.
Qubes OS 利用 [DOM0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM 即「AdminVM」來控制主機作業系統上其他訪客的 VM 或 Qubes。 其他VM 在 Dom0 桌面環境中顯示個別的應用程式視窗。 您可以根據信任等級為代碼窗口上色,並透過非常細膩的控制來執行應用程式。
Qubes OS utilizes [dom0](https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Dom0) Xen VM for controlling other *qubes* on the host OS, all of which display individual application windows within dom0's desktop environment. There are many uses for this type of architecture. Here are some tasks you can perform. You can see just how much more secure these processes are made by incorporating multiple steps.
### 復制和黏貼文本
可利用 `qvm-copy-to-vm` 或以下說明 [複製並貼上文本](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/how-to-copy-and-paste-text/)
1. **Ctrl + C** 讓 VM 複製某些內容。
2. **Ctrl + Shift + C** 讓 VM 將此緩衝區供全局剪貼板使用。
3. 在目標 VM 中按 **Ctrl + Shift + V** 以使全局剪貼簿可用。
4. 在目標 VM 中按 **Ctrl + V** 將內容粘貼到緩衝區中。
1. Press **Ctrl+C** to tell the *qube* you're in that you want to copy something.
2. Press **Ctrl+Shift+C** to tell the *qube* to make this buffer available to the global clipboard.
3. Press **Ctrl+Shift+V** in the destination *qube* to make the global clipboard available.
4. Press **Ctrl+V** in the destination *qube* to paste the contents in the buffer.
### 檔案交換
若要將檔案和目錄(資料夾)從一個 VM 複製貼到另一個 VM ,您可以使用選項 **Copy to Other AppVM...** **Move to Other AppVM...** 不同之處在於 **Move** 選項會刪除原始檔案。 這兩個選項都可以保護您的剪貼簿不會洩漏到任何其他 Qubes。 這比網閘式檔案傳輸更安全,因為網閘電腦仍將被迫解析分割區或檔案系統。 這在inter-qube複製系統中是不需要的。
