website.

### Heads
[Heads](http://osresearch.net) is an open source custom firmware and OS
configuration for laptops and servers that aims to provide slightly better
physical security and protection for data on the system. Unlike
[Tails](https://tails.boum.org/), which aims to be a stateless OS that leaves
no trace on the computer of its presence, Heads is intended for the case where
you need to store data and state on the computer.
Heads is not just another Linux distribution – it combines physical hardening
of specific hardware platforms and flash security features with custom coreboot
firmware and a Linux boot loader in ROM.
