Feb 20, 2020 at 23:43 comment added Cesar Hernandez @StingyJack Even if you had such a machine, you would have to secure physical access to the hardware, because someone could steal the storage mediums and mount them on another, compatible, machine. This brings a whole new layer of security procedures to consider. So I would say the only secure system would be the one that does not operates with sensitive data, in wich case security is irrelevant.
