iMbrief is the hippest briefcase in
the world. It’s truly one-of-a-kind. Offering more than just security and
functionality, iMbrief is also an object of art and a fashion statement in its
own right.
We’ve all been dazzled by those cool briefcases in spy films. But you never see them in the real world. So we came
up with this idea to build a flashy briefcase packed with all the
indispensable technologies required by today’s professional road warriors.
Fashion,
security and versatility are what they demand in a mobile office. And it’s all
here. Technology merged with a timeless slick style.

Lock: Fingerprint access / Wireless lock / Kensington lock
For your peace of mind, iMbrief is
protected by: 1) a state-of-the-art fingerprint access system; or 2) you can
use your mobile device to control access through a secure connection. Only you
have authorized access to your iMbrief. It will lock itself once the connection
with your mobile device is unexpectedly severed. Using the iMbrief app, you’re
always in control. In addition, your iMbrief is equipped with a Kensington Lock
slot so valuable contents are protected while your iMbrief is securely tied to a post.
Any unauthorized attempt at opening
the iMbrief will be greeted with a loud audible warning. In the off-chance that
someone should attempt to take your iMbrief by force, the built-in speaker can
emit a loud wail to scare off the perpetrator. When not acting as a siren, the
wireless speaker will play your preferred tune at your command.![]()

GPS: Path / Location tracking

log of its tracks so you can quickly retrace your trip.
