Internxt Drive Becomes First Cloud Storage with Post-Quantum Encryption
Future-proof your cloud data storage
Future-proof your cloud data storage
The future of secure cloud storage is beginning to change rapidly as developments in quantum computing increase; these powerful computers will have the power to break the current encryption technologies your current cloud providers are using.
That's the reason cloud service provider, Internxt, is preparing for the future of private cloud storage before it’s too late.
Internxt is the first cloud storage with post-quantum cryptography.
Having recently released post-quantum cryptography for Internxt Drive, Internxt is the first cloud storage provider to achieve this landmark in online privacy.
First, understand the power of quantum computing. Take the example of Google’s quantum chip, Willow. The quantum power of this chip solved a problem that would take a conventional supercomputer around 10 septillion (10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) years to solve.
With this kind of computing power, traditional encryptions like AES-256 do not stand a chance.
This is why NIST developed post-quantum cryptography to create algorithms that are resistant to quantum computers, protecting key industries such as financial, healthcare, governments, and cloud storage against cyberattacks.
To future-proof your files and data, Internxt released PQE (Post-Quantum Encryption) for Internxt Drive (cloud storage product). The best thing is that you don't need to pay extra or opt for a special plan. It is available on all plans.
Couple PQE with zero-knowledge encryption (data is encrypted on your device before it is uploaded to the cloud server), and you have a solid secure cloud storage where even the service provider cannot access your files.
At the time of writing this article, I am not aware of any other consumer-facing cloud storage services offering post-quantum encryption.
You can get Internxt lifetime cloud storage from the link below:

Yeah, I know. Even I am not a fan of courses, VPNs and cloud services offering these 'ZZ% off kind of deals'. But that's a marketing strategy many services follow.
You get 1TB to 5TB of encrypted suit with cloud storage, VPN, Mail, Meet, and Antivirus for a single payment, with no monthly or annual recurring fee. They also have a 30-day money-back policy, so if you do not like the service, you can get a full refund within the first 30 days of purchase.
And that's what I like. No subscription, single payment and if I don't like the service, I get all my money back. Perfect for trying a new service.
I have their 2 TB lifetime storage option that I use as the second backup for my photos and videos. The first copy is saved on my local network, powered by ZimaCube.
Internxt has come a long way since its inception as a web3-focused, decentralized storage to a quantum safe encrypted storage. They are also expanding their privacy ecosystem with premium VPN and email service planned for this year. Now, that would be exciting. Watch out Proton!
The best thing is that all these 'additional offerings' are bundled with the cloud storage plan you opt for.
I let you explore Internxt and take advantage of their bundled, lifetime plans.
