About ShieldFive

ShieldFive is a zero-knowledge cloud storage platform that encrypts files on the user's device before upload, ensuring that even the service provider cannot access the content. It uses post-quantum hybrid encryption with ML-KEM-1024 (NIST Level 5) and XChaCha20-Poly1305 by default, protecting against quantum computing threats. Every plan, including the free tier, includes the same strong encryption, with no AI training or content scanning. Files are stored in the EU, and the cryptographic core is open-source for public audit. The platform offers features like secure sharing links with expiry, download caps, and geolocking. With a starting price of €5 per month for 1 TB of storage, ShieldFive positions itself as a privacy-first alternative to Google Drive and similar services. Through AiDOOS, deployment and adoption are streamlined, allowing businesses to quickly integrate ShieldFive's secure storage into their workflows, manage access, and ensure data privacy compliance.

Challenges It Solves

  • Cloud providers can access user files without permission.
  • Quantum computers threaten current encryption standards.
  • Files may be used for AI training without consent.
  • Regulatory compliance requires secure data storage in specific jurisdictions.

Use Cases

Secure Document Sharing

Share confidential files with clients or colleagues via encrypted links with expiration and download caps.

Data Privacy Compliance

Meet GDPR and other privacy regulations by ensuring data is encrypted and stored only in the EU.

Secure Backup

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ShieldFive?
ShieldFive is a zero-knowledge, post-quantum encrypted cloud storage service. Files are encrypted in the browser before upload, so even ShieldFive cannot read them. It is an EU-hosted, open-source alternative to google drive.
Is ShieldFive really free?
Yes, the free plan offers 20 GB of encrypted storage with no credit card required. The same zero-knowledge encryption applies to free users.
What happens if I forget my master password?
If you forget your master password and lose the recovery key, your files are unrecoverable due to the zero-knowledge design. You receive a one-time recovery key at signup that serves as the only fallback.
Does ShieldFive use post-quantum encryption?
Yes, ShieldFive uses ML-KEM-1024 (FIPS 203, NIST Level 5) combined with XChaCha20-Poly1305 for all new uploads by default.
Can ShieldFive see my files?
No. Files are encrypted on your device before upload, and the encryption keys are never sent to ShieldFive's servers. The server only stores ciphertext.
