The Trustless Operating System for sovereign computing.
NONOS is a Zero‑Trust operating system built in Rust that runs entirely in memory.
When you shut it down, everything disappears - no history, no logs, nothing for hackers or companies to harvest.
Apps and websites never get more access than they need.
No data stored on your hard drive by default
No telemetry, no tracking, no adtech spyware.
Built‑in onion‑routed mesh network to hide who you are and where you connect.
•
You don’t want your searches, chats, and files watched or sold.
•
You’re okay with tech, but not a “hacker”.
•
You just want a clean, safe computer that does what you tell it.
•
You use wallets or exchanges and worry about malware stealing your funds.
•
You’ve heard about $2+ billion in crypto stolen via hacks and scams in 2024 and don’t want to be part of that statistic.
•
You handle sensitive information or sources.
•
You want a system that leaves no files and no logs on the machine when you’re done.
•
You often connect to a hotel, airport, or café Wi‑Fi.
•
You’d like a way to safely bank, trade, and log in from untrusted networks.
Windows, macOS and even mobile OSes were not built for a world of AI‑powered hackers and surveillance.
In 2024 alone, Windows had 1,360 reported vulnerabilities and macOS had 529 - and the number of exploits is still climbing.
Even if you use antivirus and VPNs, they sit on top of an OS that logs what you do and writes it to disk, where it can be recovered or stolen.
System logs, temp files and crash dumps stay on disk, even after you think you’ve deleted things.
AI tools now create realistic phishing emails, fake voices, and deepfake videos at scale; 87% of organizations say they’ve already faced AI‑driven cyberattacks.
Clipboard‑hijacking malware and keyloggers have quietly stolen hundreds of thousands of dollars in crypto from thousands of users.
Attackers can store your encrypted data now and wait for quantum computers to break today’s encryption in the future.
Write convincing phishing emails.
Clone voices of loved ones.
Generate deepfake videos promoting fake investments.
Many of today’s protections (like RSA and ECDSA keys) could be broken within minutes or hours on future quantum machines.
Attackers can record encrypted traffic now and decrypt it later when quantum tech catches up.
It still relies on older cryptography and trust models that assume attackers are “human‑speed”.
It wasn’t designed for AI‑driven or quantum‑level adversaries.
NONOS is a new kind of operating system. It runs entirely in your computer’s memory, is written in a safe language (Rust), and uses anonymous, encrypted networking. When you’re done, the entire session disappears - so there’s nothing left to leak, track, or hack.
No files written to your hard drive by default.
Shut down = your session is wiped.
Incorporates post‑quantum cryptography at the OS level to stay safe in a world where classical encryption can be broken.
Built from scratch in Rust, avoiding the memory bugs that cause ~70% of serious security issues in C/C++ systems.
Apps never get more access than they need.
Your traffic is routed through encrypted hops, hiding your IP and location.
Designed to be censorship‑resistant and ISP‑independent.
Integrated Ethereum wallet; NONOS can act like a secure hardware wallet.
Zero‑knowledge logins (zkAuth) let you prove “it’s you” without exposing passwords or identity.
NONOS provides an extra layer of security for both consumers and industries by neutralizing common cyberattacks that traditional systems fail to prevent. Here are a few prevalent threat scenarios that NONOS OS helps defend against:
•
NONOS runs from a bootable USB drive (or similar device).
•
You don’t have to replace your existing OS - you just boot into NONOS when you want maximum privacy.
•
Private Browsing & Banking - check accounts, send crypto, pay bills.
•
Sensitive Work Session - write, research, talk to sources.
•
Use a secure browser and essentials inside NONOS.
•
All apps run in isolated “capsules” so one program can’t spy on another.
•
When you power off, everything in memory is wiped.
•
Optional: keep certain documents/keys on an encrypted USB that only unlocks when you choose.
If you can boot from a USB stick, you can use NONOS. No coding required.
Use encrypted messaging tools via NONOS when you’re speaking with vulnerable contacts (whistleblowers, sources, family in sensitive regions).
Nothing remains on the device when you’re done.
Generate and store keys in a secure NONOS environment.
Avoid clipboard hijackers and fake wallet apps that have already stolen hundreds of thousands of dollars worldwide.
Browse, read, and take notes without feeding ad networks or data brokers.
Shut down and your reading & search history disappears.
Connect from airports, hotels or cafés without trusting their networks.
NONOS’s onion mesh shields your traffic and hides your IP.
Log into your bank from a clean, ephemeral session with no keyloggers, no spyware, and no hidden remote‑access apps.
Typical OS (Windows / macOS / Linux)
NONOS Zero‑Trust OS
From RAM (memory only) - no trace after shutdown
Nothing by default; optional encrypted storage only if you enable it
Rust - a memory‑safe language designed to prevent these bugs
Onion‑routed encrypted mesh, resistant to spying and censorship
No telemetry by default; privacy is the starting point
Adds post‑quantum‑ready cryptography & proof‑native design
Many hacks happen because old languages let programmers accidentally write past the end of memory or reuse freed memory.
Rust stops those mistakes at compile time, which is why even governments and research labs are pushing for memory‑safe code.
Traditional OSes run huge amounts of code in their most powerful layer. If anything there goes wrong, hackers get “god mode”.
NONOS keeps the trusted core tiny and runs everything else in separate boxes - so one misbehaving app can’t take over the whole system.
Instead of relying on a separate VPN or Tor browser, NONOS bakes anonymous routing into the OS itself.
Your traffic travels through layers of encryption (“onion routing”) so observers see scrambled hops, not who you are.
NONOS is open and community‑driven, but it also has a real business plan so the OS can be maintained, supported, and improved for years.
Rust microkernel & syscall isolation
Goal: get NONOS into the hands of millions of users worldwide.
Based on models like ProtonMail, which grew from 2M to nearly 70M users with a free‑first strategy.
Official pre‑loaded & encrypted NONOS USB devices for convenience and extra security (target price ~$50).
Internal projections: 500k-1M units by ~2027 could generate $25-50M per year in revenue - enough to fund ongoing development and support.
Paid “Pro” version for power users & businesses, plus enterprise licenses for organizations that need support and integrations.
Combined, the pitch deck forecasts tens of millions of dollars in annual recurring revenue within 3-5 years, ensuring NONOS isn’t dependent on donations alone.
A sustainable business model means security updates, bug fixes, and improvements keep coming - without ever selling your data.
Join the next generation of operating systems with privacy, security, and modularity at its core.
Rust microkernel, RAM‑only operation & cryptography foundations are being built and tested. (NONOS Docs)
Closed testing cycles with community feedback.
Focus on stability, hardware compatibility, and usability.
Downloadable image + official NONOS USB drives.
Starting set of secure “capsule” apps (browser, wallet, messaging).
Encrypted USB hardware key, more apps, and partnerships with privacy‑friendly hardware vendors.
