Section 1: About SafeCase

SafeCase is a first-of-its-kind mobile security
device. Designed as a convenient smartphone
case, SafeCase provides intelligent mobile
protections rooted in high-security hardware,
independent of the mobile device. The case also
has processing, sensing and communication
capabilities that serve as building blocks for
the development of additional features and
services, both via the SafeCase itself or through
hardware backpacks.
Integrated within the SafeCase itself are
anti-surveillance capabilities that actively
defend against the surreptitious hijacking of
the smartphone's cameras and microphones.
A physical barrier prevents image capture by
blocking the cameras, while intelligent audio
masking prevents audio capture by jamming
each of the microphones with randomized noise.
