Shield is the same calm hardware in every household. The difference is what it quietly takes care of for you.
Households
The kids are on the lounge-room TV, the parents are on the laptop in the kitchen. Shield quietly filters the whole house — ads, trackers, adult content, threats — and every Shield can pause a device or end the internet at bedtime without the argument. On Shield Edge and Vault, each child's device can also carry its own rules: SafeSearch that stays on, apps switched off until homework's done.
Privacy-first professionals
If you do legal, journalism, healthcare or executive work from home, the network is part of your professional surface. Shield is a calm appliance you can put behind your modem to keep filtering and management on your network. No vendor cloud. No telemetry pipeline back to anyone.
Buying Australian
If your default is to choose Australian where you reasonably can, Shield is a small home network appliance from a small team you can email. We tell you exactly what's underneath: Pi 5, Debian, AdGuard hardened, signed updates. And what we do with it.
Small offices & studios
Architects, accountants, design studios, small clinics. Five to twenty devices, sensitive data, no IT person, and no appetite for a vendor cloud sitting in the middle of every DNS lookup. Shield is the appliance you set up once and keep for years.
People who like to see what's inside
Real Pi 5 hardware. Debian 12 base. Hardened AdGuard Home. Signed update path. Hardware-assisted unlock. The local UI doesn't require an account anywhere. Open underneath, calm on top.
Frequent travellers
Take your own filtered Wi-Fi on holiday — for the family devices, the work laptop and the kids' iPad. Shield Edge does it over the accommodation's Ethernet; Shield Vault also joins hotel wireless with no cable at all. Same rules as home, wherever you're staying.
