Hi,
In conversation with several online cloud data backup services for both consumers and commercial operations, I kept coming across the same problem that their software was not open source, so how to trust? As in most cases it’s best to never trust the provider, but the software encryption! Services then which allow the generated keys to be in the possession of the user, and only the user, seem like the best way forwards.
But then the second issue: upstream speed. My theory then was that if open crypto-algorithms likes AES were relied upon by the company, then surely a Seed Drive could be encrypted before hand with the same keys and mailed in safely?
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
