• Ask HN: How can I security-sandbox email attachment opening?

  Start here: https://github.com/freedomofpress/dangerzone I've never used it, but I've been meaning to check it out. At least it should give you a jumping off point for further investigation. If that is insufficient, use proofpoint. For archives that are tickling bugs, you have to use a similar technique. it's not enough to analyze them and send them on... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: Why not cloud instead of Qubes “trusted PDFs” or Dangerzone?

  I've read about the concept of "trusted PDFs" [1] from Qubes OS and the Dangerzone project [2]. I noticed people saying they use such tools to open applicant attachments in the context of employee hiring processes. Isn't it simpler to just open these untrusted files in a cloud service like Google Drive or Microsoft Office online? [1]... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• QubesOS – A reasonably secure operating system

  You can use something similar on macOS, Windows or Linux, based on Docker containers, see Dangerzone: https://github.com/freedomofpress/dangerzone. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Help an independant journalist survive :)

  Https://github.com/freedomofpress/dangerzone has been a great tool to use as an added layer of defense. Definitely check out this users other projects as you can tell by the users name that they are made for journalists. Source: about 1 year ago

• Downloading pdf’s & Javascript

  This is exactly what DangerZone is built for. Takes ‘dangerous’ PDFs, converts them to images and back (via OCR) so there’s nothing potentially harmful inside. Does all the conversion inside docker containers so there’s little chance of a sandbox escape or network access. Source: about 1 year ago

• Impossible to convert from EPUB to PDF

  I convert EPUBs to PDFs often with Zamar @ zamzar.com. You are limited to 2 or 3 free conversions per day. When you get to the site, note that "Convert to" format is found by having to scroll down a lot in column 2 under Document formats, which is below image types at the top of column. I have never checked for safety but I have been using this site for years. Note there's also a file size limit on conversions.... Source: over 1 year ago

• Powerpoints With Flash Interactive Animations/Videos

  If your flash file is a simple animation/movie with no interaction, you might be able to find an app or site (zamzar.com maybe?) that'll convert it into a PPT-friendly video format. Source: almost 3 years ago

• How do I open an older PowerPoint file?

  I've heard that zamzar.com can convert files from very old PPT versions. If you haven't tried that already, I'd give it a go. Source: about 3 years ago

• Unable to fix corrupted PowerPoint files - Is there any way to recover the data from these files?

  One other thing, I think I've heard of people using zamzar.com to convert problem files. Worth a try! Source: about 3 years ago
