Is your data important to you? PLS can supply a laptop which is truly 100% secure; a machine which cannot be started without the combination of both a physical USB key and a powerful password. Without both of these, the machine is worthless. The hard drive is entirely encrypted to military grade standards - using encryption which has never to date been broken - not only can a third party not see your private data, they can't even see there is an operating system on the drive.
Once you have inserted your key, booted the machine, the suite of software programs pre-installed hold the highest possible security, you are as secure and private as you can possibly be - you are supplied with entirely secure e-mail - entirely secure web browsing (your browser is configured to log in to our VPN, in layman's terms everything on your machine is encrypted, then sent directly to our secure servers. We sign an agreement with you which gives you a legal promise that we don't log a single site visited, and all sites you visit see only our server's location, never yours. As we don't log, we have nothing to give to authorities, or a thief who were to some how steal the servers themselves.)
The internet is a very dangerous place for sensitive data. By being online, thousands of people can read what you are reading, see and read your e-mails, know your geographical location. Your ISP can and will log every site you visit, and hold this on record. With our system, this is not possible, you are entirely anonymous and safe.
So a slightly more technical explanation. Your hard drive's contents are automatically encrypted in real time at all times. There is never insecure data on the machine. There is never unencrypted data coming out into the public domain. To trigger the start of the hard-drive decryption, the USB key must be present. The standard underlying system is a specialist secured configuration of Linux, the most secure system available (windows/Mac OS X available). A fully functioning system in its own right, many people can simply use this, it resembles windows and allows for office suites like word processing, spreadsheets and presentation packages, however on top of this we can load a windows emulator to give you a full working laptop with Microsoft Windows on it.
Lastly, we can add a dummy operating system for you in front of the hidden one - giving the appearance of a clean laptop with nothing of interest to a corporate spy, where by simply adding the USB key and using a different password, the secret and encrypted system boots up which gives you access to the sensitive files. The hidden system is entirely secure, and unbreakable.
