Interesting project, I'm sure this is useful for people at risk.

Somewhat related, I'm wondering about the physical security of computers. There is an attack where they open your PC, take out the ram, and freeze it immediately so the bits don't decay and they can extract your encryption keys.

All BIOSes have an option for cassis intrusion detection, but I've never seen a case that has the necessary cable. Has anybody here set up a chassis intrusion kill switch that erases the RAM/shuts down the PC etc. if the case is opened improperly? Can you buy anything like this on the market?
