🗄️ Storage layers

Your plans' shares are spread across separate storage layers. No single layer holds enough to reconstruct anything.

LayerRole
Inheriti® VaultCloud storage for encrypted data shares
InheritiChainOur private blockchain, guarding the shares that gate access
Inheriti® HSMManaged hardware protecting the keys that tie a plan together
Cloud ConnectorsYour own Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive as extra storage layers

Separation is the security​

Where the four kinds of piece of a plan are kept

Each layer holds a different kind of piece: data shares in one place, the shares that gate access in another, key protection in dedicated hardware, and one share always in a member's hands via SafeKey.

Breaching any single layer, even completely, yields encrypted fragments that answer to rules stored elsewhere.

All layers are part of the service and set up automatically with your organisation. There is nothing for you to host or maintain, and the cloud connectors, optional paid add-ons, are the only layer you choose to add yourself.
