How the ECOS SecureBootStick HE works

Any PC or Mac can boot the specially hardened ECOS Secure Linux operating system on the ECOS SecureBootStick HE. The internal hard disk is disconnected, so no malware on the hard disk will ever get a chance.
Switching off the internal hard disk ensures 100% separation between professional and private use of the PC.

The ECOS SecureBootStick HE not only provides the security of a protected and encapsulated environment, it also serves as a strong multi-factor authentication. The stick is coupled with a cryptographic key in the hardware.
