About DoNotDisturb
Do Not Disturb is a free, open source Mac app from Objective-See that watches for "evil maid" attacks: someone opening your laptop's lid while you are away to tamper with it.
It suits travelers and anyone who leaves a laptop unattended. When the lid opens, it can alert you and record what happens.
