This week we shared a review of Secure-K OS, an operating system which is designed to be run from a USB thumb drive. We would like to find out how many of our readers use such an operating system. Do you have a distribution such as Secure-K OS, Tails, or Puppy that you carry around with you on a removable drive? If so let us know which one you prefer in the comments.

I would say that Bionicdog has a feature that makes it more secure than other OS, you can choose if you want to save or not at the end of your session, if you do not save, if infected by malware, your operating system is clean next time you boot it.
It is a feature found in some of the best security-oriented distros, so it is a good reason to have it installed on a thumb drive.
