|item=fa-solid fa-link cs-green,{{project_name_short}} is based on {{Kicksecure}}: {{project_name_short}} is built on top of Kicksecure. This means it uses many of the same security tools, design concepts, and configurations.
|item=fa-solid fa-server cs-gray,Kicksecure is based on Debian: Kicksecure is developed using Debian as its base. Debian is a widely used, stable, and free Linux operating system.
|item=fa-solid fa-arrow-down cs-blue,Inheritance: As a result, {{project_name_short}} is also based on Debian.
|item=fa-solid fa-linux cs-black,Debian is GNU/Linux-based: Debian is built using the GNU/Linux operating system. GNU provides essential tools and Linux is the system’s kernel (core).
|item=fa-solid fa-users cs-green,Shared documentation benefits: Since each system is based on the one below it, a lot of documentation and guides are shared. This reduces the need to duplicate information.
|item=fa-solid fa-file-alt cs-gray,Inherited documentation: Most instructions and explanations are inherited from Kicksecure or Debian, unless otherwise specified.
|item=fa-solid fa-check cs-green,Shared principles: The systems share similar security goals and setup instructions. In most cases, users can follow Kicksecure documentation when using {{project_name_short}}.
|item=fa-solid fa-thumbs-up cs-blue,Keep using {{project_name_short}}: This does not mean users should switch to Kicksecure. This page only points to related, helpful information.

|item=fa-solid fa-balance-scale cs-blue,Comparison: Whonix versus Kicksecure
|item=fa-solid fa-sync-alt cs-gray,Documentation compatibility: Because {{project_name_short}} is based on Kicksecure, you can often follow Kicksecure’s instructions as long as you apply them in the right place.
|item=fa-solid fa-layer-group cs-gray,Summary: {{project_name_short}} is built on top of Kicksecure, which itself is based on Debian. Debian is a GNU/Linux operating system. This layered design means {{project_name_short}} inherits many features, tools, and documentation from both Kicksecure and Debian.
