Security and Privacy

HyperSeed’s decentralized cloud storage platform is built on two core pillars: security and privacy.

We ensure that our users are anonymous and their data is protected from unauthorized access by combining decentralized architecture, strong encryption methods, and AI-driven safety monitoring.


Decentralized Data Storage

HyperSeed has built a storage solution as a decentralized network of nodes. This ensures your data is always distributed safely across multiple locations and as a design choice this removes the single point of failure that is found in centralized cloud storage.

  • Safety and Repair Shards Our HyperSeed software uses a special encryption method that splits each file you upload, whether large or small, into smaller segments which we call safety shards and repair shards.

  • Redundancy and Availability Your safety and repair shards are distributed across multiple nodes in our storage network, ensuring that no single node holds enough shards to reconstruct your file. This distribution is carefully designed to keep your data accessible, even if some nodes go down.

  • Safe and Secure Ecosystem users hold their own keys to unlock their encryption and have complete control over their own data. This ensures users that we maintain higher standards than our competitors, and that no one, not even our team, can access or view user files.


Advanced Encryption Techniques

HyperSeed utilizes advanced encryption to protect your data, whether at rest or in motion. This ensures that we can guarantee our users that their information remains secure from unauthorized access.

  • Data Sharding with Encryption HyperSeed software uses industry-standard AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption algorithms before your data is uploaded to our network, creating shards in your transfer. This ensures that your data is split into useless, unreadable shards before it leaves your machine, and only you hold the key to restore it to its original state, guaranteeing total security and privacy.

  • Quantum-Resistant Encryption We use quantum-resistant encryption to reassure our users that advancements in technology, such as powerful quantum computing, cannot compromise their security. Our users can rely on HyperSeed with confidence that their data is secure against current and future hacking threats, ensuring long-term protection as technology continues to evolve.

  • End-to-End Encryption HyperSeed’s software ensures that all data is encrypted before being uploaded to our network, guaranteeing that only the user holds the decryption key. This ensures that no one else, including HyperSeed or any third party, can access, view, or read the user's data.


Zero-Knowledge Proofs

HyperSeed uses zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to let nodes prove they are storing data correctly without them ever accessing the actual content. This boosts privacy by allowing data verification without exposing any sensitive information.

  • Proof of Storage without Data Access Nodes on the HyperSeed network can verify the integrity and availability of the data they store without ever accessing, viewing, or altering the actual contents. This ensures that while your data is securely stored, it remains completely private and inaccessible to the nodes themselves.

  • User Control Only users possess the decryption keys for their data, ensuring that even node operators hosting the data cannot access its contents. This guarantees that your information stays fully encrypted and private at all times, even when transferring data between nodes.


AI-Driven Threat Detection and Monitoring

HyperSeed's integration of AI provides a vigilant security service that monitors in the background, protecting our network from potential threats and taking action as needed to ensure user safety.

  • Anomaly Detection HyperSeed uses AI algorithms to monitor our network activity in real time to detect any unusual behavior that may indicate hacking attempts, node failures, or malicious activity. This proactive monitoring allows us to mitigate risks rapidly before they escalate into larger issues.

  • Automatic Isolation of Malicious Nodes Our platform protects users by automatically flagging suspicious nodes. If a node is compromised, our AI system reroutes all its data to healthy nodes. Our AI also verifies the unique code of each file, ensuring that any tampered files are excluded. It automatically uses safety and repair shards from neighboring nodes to restore any missing shards, maintaining data integrity and enhancing overall security on the platform.


Privacy by Design

HyperSeed is built with privacy-first principles:

  • Data Ownership and Control HyperSeed’s architecture ensures that users have complete control over their data, determining where it is stored and who can access it. No third party, including HyperSeed, can access or share user data without the user’s explicit consent.

  • Compliance with Global Privacy Regulations Despite being a decentralized platform, HyperSeed actively complies with global data protection regulations. By including GDPR and HIPAA we ensure that our platform provides a service that helps businesses and individuals by meeting strict privacy and data handling requirements.

  • Geographic Data Sovereignty Our users can freely chose the geographic regions where they want to store their data. This ensures users they can comply with local data privacy regulations, or meet enterprise requirements.
