Collection: Faraday Backpacks

A faraday backpack puts a sealed signal-blocking compartment inside an everyday pack: phones, key fobs and laptops placed in the faraday pocket can't transmit or receive anything until you take them out. EscapeZone faraday backpacks go a step further — every pack also carries a removable ballistic insert built to the NIJ IIIA soft-armor standard, so one bag covers both signal security and physical protection.

FARADAY BAG FAQS

Faraday bags, answered

Spec-built faraday bags that block cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, RFID and NFC — phone sleeves to duffles.

Do faraday bags actually work?

Yes. A faraday bag surrounds your device with layers of conductive fabric that absorb and reflect radio waves — the same physics as a Faraday cage. EscapeZone bags are spec-built across the frequencies phones, cars and card readers actually use: cellular including sub-6 GHz 5G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, RFID and NFC. How to test yours at home →

What does a faraday bag block?

Everything your device uses to talk to the outside world: cellular signal, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, RFID and NFC. Sealed inside, a phone can't be called, tracked, pinged or remotely wiped, and cards can't be skimmed.

Will a faraday bag stop my key fob from being cloned?

Yes. Keyless-entry theft works by relaying your fob's signal to your car from a distance. A sealed faraday pouch blocks that signal entirely, so there is nothing to relay or clone.

How do I test a faraday bag?

Seal your phone inside, then call it from another phone and try sending it a message. If the bag is working, the call won't connect and nothing arrives until you take the phone out. You can also watch Bluetooth and Wi-Fi drop off a paired device.

Does a faraday bag block GPS tracking?

While a device is sealed inside, it can neither receive GPS satellite signal nor report its position over cellular or Wi-Fi — so live tracking stops. Location history resumes only once the device comes back out.

Will it protect electronics from an EMP?

A sealed Faraday enclosure is the standard civilian precaution for storing backup electronics, and many customers use our bags for backup radios, drives and spare phones. Our bags are not EMP-tested.
