What's Included
Built to protect you out of the box
Hardware
Encrypted Hard drive
Your files, documents, and personal data are protected with full-disk encryption. If your computer is lost or stolen, the contents of the drive remain inaccessible without your passphrase.
Hardware
Microphone Blocker
A physical hardware blocker, not a software switch, redirects audio input to a dummy microphone. Simple, visible, and independent of software mute settings.
Hardware
Camera Blocker
A physical sliding cover for the webcam. Simple, reliable, and impossible to bypass remotely. You decide when the camera is on.

Software
Firefox — Fully Configured
Firefox set up with hardened privacy settings, a built-in password manager, uBlock Origin to block ads (no more ads on YouTube!) and trackers, and a JavaScript blocker for sites that don't need it. Secure out of the box, no tinkering required.
Software
Mullvad VPN — 1 Year Included
