The proximity based lockdown is interesting but won't prevent the likely scenario of being grabbed while you are using the computer. Silkroad is a famous incident, but I think its the only option in any scenerio where the attacker knows you are using an encrypted disk.
I'm curious about your supply chain risk mitigation. Given that the project is open source, can you publish a list of all of your suppliers and the country of production?
Great work overall, looks like a nice design.
- Archi1 10y agoThank you for the feedback! This is still a desktop so if the device is grabbed the power won't stay long. You need NFC to restart and then enter your password. We are still working on opening as much as we can of the design. Bill of Material and drawings will be detailed on www.orwl.org/wiki
- brbsix 10y agoIf your device is grabbed by the FBI from the Glen Park library, I don't think they'll be turning it off. Wouldn't they use some sort of device[0] to maintain the power supply? I assume they would also be aware a key fob was in use, at least if you were using reasonably well-known hardware like the ORWL. I noticed the campaign details indicated the power supply voltage is monitored. Will this protect against a hot-plug?
