I run a small business and would like to use Linux for its free naturet. Is there a way to lock down linux using software or a whole distro that would prevent people from doing pretty much anything other than opening a web browser similar to Windows or ChromeOS. I would use ChromeOS, had it not been made by Google as I am not super keen on using something made by big tech.

Edit: This would be for employees and is exclusively about endpoint security, mot enforcing staying on task.

    All good points. Who the heck cares as long as your employees deliver their promised work on time?

    I should add that you should however restrict data storage, mandate disk encryption, etc.

      Agreed. I manage both of these transparently beyond the employee’s view. All the employee knows is that they have xyz free space to use on their profile.
