End-to-end encryption

When “secure” is not secure enough

In especially critical contexts – such as for certain aspects of HR data – even a high standard of regular protection is often not enough. What matters is not just “security” per se, but absolute control over the information you have stored.

netfiles Data Vault keeps this control safely in your hands. End-to-end encryption keeps your content entirely private. Only authorized individuals can access the vault: Neither netfiles nor anyone else ever gets to look inside, but your data still remains accessible from anywhere. This combines flexibility with the highest level of confidentiality to underpin a rigorous data sovereignty strategy.

User-friendly and secure key management

End-to-end encryption is often seen as complicated – but not with netfiles Data Vault, which combines the strictest security with ease of use. First, your data is encrypted internally using the proven AES-256 protocol. Then, keys are exchanged securely based on advanced RSA-4096 public key methods. Best of all, everything is automated and runs fully in the background.

This frees users from the hassle of administering certificates. Nor do they need any advance knowledge of encryption. All they need is a single password – their personal data key – to encrypt the dat. After the initial setup procedure, all cryptographic processes run automatically. The user experience thus remains convenient, while keeping your data absolutely confidential and giving you full control.

Zero knowledge – for full data sovereignty and control

“Zero knowledge” means that the provider knows nothing – precisely the principle that underpins netfiles Data Vault. Genuine end-to-end encryption ensures that content is encrypted on your device (in the browser) before it is even transferred to netfiles and stored in our high-security data centers.

Only you and the individuals you authorize have the key. netfiles itself has no access to your data content, not even for administrative purposes. This architecture not only reinforces data protection and IT compliance: It also maximizes your data sovereignty. Your data belongs to you and you alone.
