We are delighted to announce the version of the 5Q: 5QS Mark II mechanical keyboard with improved safety.
Regardless of the strength of your cybersecurity, if your keyboard is compromised, your organization, your family and you are in danger of losing not only money, but also your reputation and even your work.
Did you know that most keyboard firmware can be improved in silence without anyone knowing it? And the new firmware containing a keylogger? There is almost no way to know that something like that has happened to your configuration, and it could happen to anyone at any time.
Enter the 5q Mark II with improved security, Silky Smooth Cherry MX2A switches, sound damping and altered electronics with the firmware locking.
When we talk about locking the firmware, we refer to a functionality designed to ensure that the internal software on your keyboard is completely secure from unauthorized access. In practical terms, this means that no one can update or modify the firmware from your keyboard remotely without your physical presence.
This is why a government agency contacted us to build a keyboard that could not be compromised. We have built above the excellent foundations of the 5QS keyboard and improved or reorganized almost everything to make the 5q Mark II. The results are incredible. I’m tapping one right now, and it makes you effortlessly. If you choose the Red Silent MX2A Cherry switch, the keyboard will be completely silent, which is ideal for office environments or silent entry during boring zoom calls.
For health care, government and even technological startup industries with precious IP – all this sensitive information such as patient files, classified data and intellectual property is managed daily – this level of security is essential.
Is that all? No. This keyboard is absolutely everyone. Everyone needs confidentiality and confidentiality, and no one wants their bank accounts are emptied.
By locking the firmware, you maintain total control of updates and keyboard features, making it a solid choice for all those working in secure environments where data protection and confidentiality are essential.
In addition to improved security, we have always reorganized Q software, the keyboard software companion that helps us stay above our work. The 5q Mark II perpetuates this tradition by allowing it to focus on important information such as website surveillance, observation of progress in GitHub action, Trello tasks, equity prices, weather and much more.
For anyone like us – keeping sensitive customer data, working on confidential projects, needing absolute confidentiality on your workflow, or simply typing your email password that you do not want to share with the world – this keyboard is for you.
