Features Built for Uncompromised Freedom

Portable & Untraceable

OpenNyx runs directly from a secure, bootable USB stick. It leaves absolutely no digital footprint on the host machine, ensuring your activities remain private and untraceable.

The 'Nuke' Function

With a single, rapid command, OpenNyx can instantly and irreversibly destroy its entire system. This ensures that no data can be recovered, providing ultimate peace of mind in critical situations.

Integrated Privacy

OpenNyx is natively connected and configured to route all network traffic through the Tor network. This ensures your online activity is anonymous and your location is obscured from the moment you boot up.

Multi-Layered Security

Built on a meticulously hardened Linux kernel, OpenNyx employs multiple, robust layers of encryption for all data at rest and in transit. This provides uncompromised data protection against even the most sophisticated threats.

Our Vision: Digital Sovereignty for All

In an age where digital privacy is constantly under threat, OpenNyx aims to empower individuals with complete control over their digital lives. We envision a world where personal data remains truly personal, free from surveillance and exploitation. OpenNyx is more than an OS; it's a statement for digital freedom.

Unbreakable Security

To create an operating system that stands as a fortress against all forms of digital intrusion, ensuring absolute confidentiality and integrity of user data.

Absolute Anonymity

To provide a platform where users can navigate the digital world without leaving a trace, protecting their identity and activities from prying eyes.

Open Source, Community Driven

To foster a collaborative environment where the brightest minds can contribute to building the future of secure computing, ensuring transparency and continuous improvement.

Accessible Privacy for Everyone

To make advanced security and privacy tools accessible and easy to use for everyone, regardless of their technical expertise, empowering a broader audience with true digital freedom.

How It Works: Simplicity Meets Security

OpenNyx is designed for intuitive use without compromising on its robust security features. Here's a glimpse into its seamless operation.

Universal Compatibility

OpenNyx is designed to boot and run seamlessly on virtually any Windows or Linux PC. Simply plug in your secure USB stick, boot from it, and you're ready to go – no installation required on the host machine.

RAM-Only Operation

For maximum privacy and to leave no trace, OpenNyx runs entirely in your computer's RAM (Random Access Memory). This means that once you shut down, all session data is instantly wiped from memory, ensuring complete data ephemerality.

Choose Your Capacity

OpenNyx will be available in two secure USB stick versions: a 4GB variant for essential privacy needs and an 8GB version for users requiring more storage for their encrypted files and applications. Both offer the same core security features.

All Data On-Stick

Every piece of data, from the operating system itself to your personal files and browsing history, resides exclusively on the encrypted USB stick. This ensures that no sensitive information is ever left behind on the host computer.

Dual USB Stick Unlocking (Optional)

For an unparalleled level of security, OpenNyx offers an optional feature requiring two separate USB sticks to unlock and boot the system. One stick acts as the primary OS, while the second holds a crucial encryption key, creating a physical two-factor authentication mechanism.

Under the Hood: Engineering for Security

OpenNyx is meticulously engineered from the ground up with security as its paramount principle. Discover the robust foundation that makes it truly impenetrable.

Linux Base & Hardening

Built upon a minimalistic and heavily customized Linux distribution, OpenNyx undergoes extensive kernel hardening. This includes disabling unnecessary modules, applying strict security policies, and implementing Mandatory Access Control (MAC) frameworks like SELinux or AppArmor to restrict process capabilities.

Advanced Encryption Protocols

Every aspect of OpenNyx is encrypted. We utilize industry-leading encryption standards such as AES-256 for full disk encryption (FDE) with LUKS, combined with an easy-to-install setup process. Data in transit is secured via strong TLS/SSL configurations and automatic VPN tunneling before hitting the Tor network.

Forced Tor Integration

All outbound network connections are strictly forced through the Tor network, eliminating any possibility of IP leakage. DNS requests are also routed through Tor, and non-Tor traffic is blocked at the firewall level. This ensures complete anonymity for all online activities.

Instant Self-Destruction

The "Nuke" feature is designed for rapid, irreversible data sanitization. It employs cryptographic erasure techniques, overwriting encryption keys and critical metadata, rendering the entire system unreadable within seconds. This is a last-resort, but highly effective, privacy safeguard.
