<p>In a <a
href="https://www.forensicfocus.com/stable/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/cold_boot_attack_for_forensiscs1.pdf">research
report from 2011</a>, Defense Research and Development Canada concluded that
cold boot attacks can be useful in some cases to acquire data in memory but are
not a panacea and have many drawbacks dictated by the laws of physics, which
cannot be overcome by the technique. The authors recommend to only use cold
boot attacks as a last resort when all other avenues have been exhausted.</p>

After a computer is powered off, the data in RAM disappears rapidly, but it can remain in RAM up to several minutes after shutdown. An attacker having access to a computer before the data in RAM disappears completely could recover important data from your session.

You can use the Boot Loader to modify the *boot options*. Boot options are special parameters used to troubleshoot or work around hardware support problems. For example, our [[list of known issues with graphics cards|support/known_issues/graphics]] documents boot options for different graphics cards.

Tor hides your location from destination servers, but it does not encrypt <i>all</i> your communication. The last relay of a Tor circuit, called the <i>exit node</i>, establishes the actual connection to the destination server. This last step can be unencrypted, for example, if you connect to a website using HTTP instead of HTTPS.

The computer might be compromised if its physical components have been altered. For example, if a keylogger has been physically installed on the computer, your passwords, personal information, and other data typed on the keyboard could be stored and accessed by someone else, even if you are using Tails.
