Explanation

A StrongHold bag is a Faraday bag - a shielded enclosure that blocks all electromagnetic signals (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, GPS, RFID). Forensic investigators use them to store wireless-capable devices (such as wireless cards, smartphones, and tablets) to prevent remote wiping, new data being written, or communication with external networks that could alter evidence. Backup tapes and hard drives do not transmit wirelessly and do not require this protection.
