Abstract:

As users and organizations we are more and more relying on technology for everything we do, weather it is our personal usage or our business usage.

How much do we need to trust our technology providers to handle our data with care? Is there any way we can be more in control of our data?

The CryptPad project is being build based on a new approach, end-to-end encryption, raising the bar of data security and privacy, while providing a high usability and many collaboration features, including real-time collaboration.

Human-made No record of this work says a model made it. What this means.
