Encryption and decryption briefly explained

You don’t have to worry about encryption and decryption – it all happens automatically in the background. The only important thing for you to know is that The keys required for encryption and decryption are exclusively and always stored on the users’ computers – never on TeamDrive!

Even we, as the provider of the cloud solution, have no access to or insight into your data.

Security by Design

In order to minimise the vulnerability to malicious attacks and data theft, we paid strict attention to seamless and highly secure encryption, authentication and the isolation of security-relevant areas during the planning and development of our cloud solution. The underlying design concept is called Security by Design.

This also means that the safety of our product is continuously tested and certified by highly competent and independent official bodies.

Special information for experts

TeamDrive uses AES-256 encryption for end-to-end encryption. To do this, TeamDrive uses asymmetric encryption with a public key method. When exchanging data or messages, a key pair is generated for each user. This pair consists of a secret key (private key) and a public key (public key).

The sender’s computer encrypts the message or file with the public key. The recipient’s computer decrypts the receiving file with the private key.

The end-to-end encryption protocols contain a digital certificate that authenticates both end points of the communication. To ensure that data is secure from unauthorised access, only the authorised persons receive the keys, not the cloud provider or network operator.

With end-to-end encryption for a published file, the key used for this file is integrated into the link (URL). The recipient receives this link directly by email, for example, and not via the TeamDrive Cloud.

For this reason, confidentiality between sender and recipient is maintained.
