Launching Backbone

We’re excited to announce Backbone — our project to build the digital equivalent of a bank vault for organizations’ sensitive data.

In a world where data breaches are rampant and surveillance is commonplace, organizations today store their sensitive data using general-purpose software that was not designed to provide the necessary protections. This is typically followed up by deploying complex, expensive solutions to address their neglect of privacy and security.

🎛 What does the platform do?

Backbone is designed to provide maximalist security properties with minimal friction.
Powered by innovations in cryptographically assured access controls, tamper-evident technology and a trust model that you fully control, our end-to-end encrypted data platform keeps your data safe even if Backbone itself is compromised.

On this foundation, we're launching our first two products:

1. Backbone Secrets is the user-facing command center for your organization's sensitive data. With Secrets, you can securely store, access and share files, passwords and other resources - with granular cryptographic assurance of who can and cannot access your data.

2. Backbone SDK allows any developer to safeguard data that resides in untrusted or semi-trusted systems and networks outside Backbone and seamlessly integrates with Secrets to power end-user workflows with unparalleled security.

🌍 Our vision

We that this foundation helps build the next generation of privacy-preserving, secure-by-definition applications.
