Crafted with meticulous attention, our ultra-portable workstation laptop is a testament to our commitment to your privacy, security, and freedom. Each chip and line of code is designed to uphold these fundamental rights, ensuring a seamless and secure user experience.

Privacy-Focused

No intrusive trackers and unnecessary data collection.

Robust Security

Encrypted operating system, secure hardware elements, and protection against cyber threats.

Freedom from Proprietary + Big Tech

Built on PopOS, fully free, ethical, secure and open-source reliable operating system.

IME Disabled/Neutralised (Intel Management Engine)

Vulnerable and proprietary low-level hardware parts can be disabled to make the hardware more robust against advanced attacks.

The Intel Management Engine (ME) is a type of separate computer within all modern Intel processors (CPU). The ME acts as a master controller for your CPU and has extensive access to your computer (system memory, screen, keyboard, network). Intel controls the code of the ME and severe vulnerabilities have already been found in the ME that allow local and remote attacks. Therefore, ME can be considered a backdoor and are disabled in these laptops.

Secure Linux OS

Pre-installed PopOS Linux with full disk encryption. PopOS is one of the most popular, stable and easy-to-use Linux distributions. Made to support your privacy, on a brand new open-source ecosystem (hardware + software).

The Nitrous Laptop won’t indiscriminately harvest your data to turn a profit. It won’t ensnare you within a controlling ecosystem.

Unprecedented Portable Security & Privacy

  • Tamper Detection:

    The Nitrous Laptop uses a combination of Coreboot, Heads, and hardware to detect if the laptop has been tampered with during transportation or in your absence (Evil Maid Attack). During boot, the USB Key checks system integrity, with a green LED indicating no tampering and a red LED signaling a breach.

  • Cryptographic Keys Control:

    All cryptographic keys are generated directly on the Nitrous Laptop and remain under user control, unlike Secure Boot, which depends on the manufacturer. This ensures that users retain complete control over their system’s security.

  • Ready-to-Use Setup:

    The Nitrous Laptop comes pre-configured, with all necessary software and settings installed, so users can start using it immediately without needing to flash the BIOS or configure Linux themselves.

  • Security-Conscious Shipping:

    For added security, the Nitrous Laptop and USB key can be shipped separately to reduce the risk of interception and tampering during delivery.

Hand-made (Custom built)

Each Nitrous Laptop is a bespoke, ‘made to measure’ item, built to suit individual needs.. We load the best apps & software, setup and configure the OS, and apply extra security & privacy configurations to boot. To add, we offer our fool-proof support should you need a hand. Power ON – Ready to go.

Each Nitrous Laptop is customized to individual needs, with a focus on quality over speed.
