Beyond Encryption

Why theSHFT?

Encryption protects your messages. But it doesn't protect you.

Encryption isn't enough

Signal's icon on your home screen tells the world you use Signal. In countries where Signal is flagged, having it installed puts you at risk. theSHFT looks like a calculator. There's nothing to flag.

What happens when they take your phone?

Signal has a screen lock. theSHFT has a fully functional calculator. Open the app under pressure and all anyone sees is math. There's no messaging app to find.

The panic button Signal doesn't have

Enter a duress PIN under pressure. Everything wiped silently. No crash, no error, just math. Your conversations vanish like they never existed.
