It is with great pleasure that we announce Amutable and our mission to deliver determinism and verifiable integrity to Linux systems.
Today’s infrastructure approaches security reactively. Software agents watch for vulnerabilities and intrusions; attackers refine their evasion. These defensive approaches are costly, brittle, and ineffective.
We settle for heuristics because we lack a picture of what is correct and the means to protect it. We wire buildings and wait for circuit breakers to trip. We look for termites instead of building with steel.
Integrity should be built into every critical infrastructure project. And an org…

It is with great pleasure that we announce Amutable and our mission to deliver determinism and verifiable integrity to Linux systems.
Today’s infrastructure approaches security reactively. Software agents watch for vulnerabilities and intrusions; attackers refine their evasion. These defensive approaches are costly, brittle, and ineffective.
We settle for heuristics because we lack a picture of what is correct and the means to protect it. We wire buildings and wait for circuit breakers to trip. We look for termites instead of building with steel.
Integrity should be built into every critical infrastructure project. And an organization’s developer and operational teams should be able to meet trust and compliance goals as a natural result of good tooling and architecture, not as a burdensome detour.
Amutable will define that missing picture and replace heuristics with rigor. Over the coming months, we’ll be pouring foundations for verification and building robust capabilities on top.
Amutable’s mission is to deliver verifiable integrity to Linux workloads everywhere. We look forward to working towards this goal with the broader Linux community.
About the team
Amutable is founded by Chris Kühl (CEO), Christian Brauner (CTO) and Lennart Poettering (Chief Engineer). The founding executive team is rounded out by David Strauss as Chief Product Officer. The founding engineering team consists of Rodrigo Campos Catelin, Zbyszek Jędrzewski-Szmek, Kai Lüke, Daan de Meyer, Joaquim Rocha, Aleksa Sarai, and Michael Vogt.
We are creators, contributors, and maintainers of open-source system components such as systemd, Linux, Kubernetes, runc, LXC, Incus, and containerd. In addition, we have experience in building traditional distributions like Debian, Fedora/CentOS, SUSE and Ubuntu as well as immutable, image-based Linux distributions like Flatcar Container Linux, ParticleOS, and Ubuntu Core.
Amutable is based out of Berlin, Germany.

If you share our vision and are interested in partnering with us, please reach out.
And lastly, we will all be at FOSDEM this weekend. Whether at one of our talks or in the hallway track, we look forward to meeting and speaking with the wider open source community.
