The Necuno is a phone-like mobile device exclusively manufactured in Finland .[4] It seeks to provide high level security and user privacy[2] by omitting the cellular modem.[5] For this reason, it cannot be used on a regular mobile phone network. Instead it offers VOIP via a peer-to-peer encrypted communication platform called Ciphra.[6] Standard cellular connectivity is planned for later versions.[7]
The Necuno is mostly open-source,[1] apart from an isolated firmware blob without access to the main memory,[3] used in the Wi-Fi driver for regulatory reasons.[8] The device uses Plasma Mobile by default, but it can run a variety of open-source mobile operating systems.[2] It also has an ethernet port.[7]
