# KCD Mnemonic Mule Data Carrier
## Description
Need to protect sensitive data from hackers? The Kenta Cyber Dynamics’ Mnemonic Mule Data Carrier implant allows you to store a near-infinite number of data files including video and audio. The implant is hardwired to your cerebral cortex and bypasses the TAP entirely. But that’s not all! The implant also encrypts the data, so even IF someone incapacitates you and tries to access the data directly (or cuts the implant out of your head), they still have to hack through it.
