Librem 11: What to Expect?
Dubbed as a secure tablet, Librem 11 is powered by their in-house Linux distro PureOS, alongside PureBoot for offering a very secure and privacy-focused experience.
The security and privacy of the device is ensured by Purism, thanks to a variety of measures that they have taken:
The first is the secure boot process that works thanks to PureBoot, which can be coupled together with the Librem Key to further enhance security, and cryptographically identify tampering when used with PureBoot.
The second is Purism's commitment to not spying on their users, by avoiding any surveillance, or data mining practices.
And, the final one is the add-on 'Anti-Interdiction' service for Librem 11 which ensures that the device has not been tampered with before, during, or after the manufacturing and shipping processes.
