I posted about Mozy cuz OP asked service which don't hold private key, and I described it as you questioned about difference. I don't have concern about their holding private key. But if Mozy is really the only service that meets your fairly specific criteria, maybe you have to pay to get what you want.Ĭlick to expand.I think you misunderstood me. I see the benefit of storing the private key on your own machine. ![]() It does seem like you may be expecting to get a lot for free. When I look at the pricing chart on Tresorit's site, it seems to say the file size limit for free accounts is 500 MB. For what it's worth, SpiderOak responded and said this is just wrong and not how their service works: There is also a bit of a response from Tresorit part way through this review of their service, where they claim the Hopkins study if flawed: I don't know that this responds to your concerns, but thought it might interest you. I read that a researcher at John's Hopkins, critiqued SpiderOak, Wuala, and Tresorit, because they store an RSA key on their server for sharing purposes. Thanks for the explanation about how Mozy is different. Also, if quantum computer evolved, those asymmetric encryption will be broken but symmetric encryption is sill relatively safe (unless new powerful algorithm is invented). At the same time they are forced to make alternative of those cipher especially TLS. In the future if P=NP is proved (again, quite unlikely but nobody can deny), then many researchers would seriously seek for attack against popular asymmetric encryption as well as popular hash algorithms. ![]() Of course then, you can't share the contents anymore. OTOH, if only you have your private key of asymmetric encryption such as RSA, currently only you can decrypt the contents regardless of passphrase or such. This means, though surely Spideroak or Wuala's employee can't decrypt your contents unless they know your passphrase, potentially anyone who know the pass can decrypt the contents (there can be another security to prevent this, I'm speaking in theory). Both Spideroak and Wuala, though they don't provide details of their encryption (very disappointing for me), store your private key on the server BUT they are encrypted by AES (symmetric key). I am unaware of any easy ways to accomplish this type of thing utilising traditional file sharing services and so I may be missing some ways to manage standard SMB shares so that it's more user-friendly and reliable.Click to expand.They offer an option not to store your private key on their server. Now, most of my personal experience with FileSharing and file security relate to our Distribution Points and so I am nowhere near being an expert in this field. While advertising some pretty neat file collaboration features. While both companies will sign BAAs (or rather HIPPA BAs) only Box will let you manage your encryption keys. Here in IT we love our Dropbox Business account but are looking into things like Box because they'll let you manage your own encryption keys. To help alleviate these issues we've moved all of our non-sensitive documents and files to GAFE (in more of a managed manner than that implies), are moving all HR related files to our HR management system, will be moving archival financial documentation to a properly secured Document management system that we are still evaluating, but we need to find the best solution to manage, share and maintain secured working files which may contain PII, PHI or other sensitive business information.īecause we've found good secure ways to handle MOST of our documents there are only a small number of users (I'm guessing less than 30) with minimal storage needs. They don't like learning which characters they shouldn't use (you know, like and or :), and they really hate having to have IT set directory permissions etc. They don't like being advised to move files to their local drives before beginning to work on them. Now for my issue: Our users are tired of working with our secure SMB file shares. However, you are all my favorite folks to ask for this type of advice and so, here I am. ![]()
