1 [[!meta title="Introduction"]]
3 The goal of this documentation is to explain how to use Tails and to present to
4 the user its principal security features. It is structured to help you achieve
5 concrete tasks, but also provides more general information to help you
6 understand the type of security provided by Tails and its limitations.
8 As Tails includes [[many other applications|doc/about/features]], this
9 documentation focuses on the aspects that are specific to Tails. To learn more
10 about how to use each specific application, we try to provide references to
11 external documentation.
13 But this documentation is not meant to be a complete computer security guide.
14 Because it does not explain how to build a complete security strategy, that
15 would depend on your specific use case and threat model.
17 If you are facing concrete problems with Tails that are not documented here,
18 refer to our [[Support]] section to get more help.
20 If you want to learn about the internals of Tails, and understand our design
21 choices, refer to our [[design documentation|contribute/design]].
