Qubes OS is an open-source operating system for laptop computers. It is also a security-oriented operating system uses the virtualization to implement security by compartmentalization and supports both Windows and Linux virtual environment. The latest version of Qubes OS also induces the Hypervisor Abstraction Layer (HAL) which renders Qubes OS independent of its underlying virtualization system.
