This new version boasts a wide range of updates and improvements, including the latest software updates, bug fixes, performance improvements, and ready-to-use hardware support.
The update is focused on tools to protect users' privacy and anonymization online, in addition to the already existing encryption features from previous releases. Nitrux 2.8.1 includes various changes aimed at safeguarding users' online privacy and security.
