CryptoHeaven Test Partners (#1118)

CryptoHeaven is a security services provider with an offering I'd like to test. The Toronto-based company offers a suite of security services -- encrypted e-mail, encrypted backup, encrypted file sharing, encrypted IM -- via both a Web interface and a local client. CryptoHeaven has some interesting aspects, including distributing the source code for its software and using a system with no third-party key holders -- not even the Sysadmins have access to the decryption keys. The company offers both individual and business accounts.

Of course, not everything needs to be encrypted. But there are certainly times when secure document delivery and file exchange might be useful, especially when working as an outside consultant for large corporations -- i.e. sensitive M&A documents, financial contracts and audit data, personnel files, etc. There could also be times when companies might want to keep certain internal info -- audits, etc. -- off its own systems. In these cases a secured environment could provide an extra layer of comfort for the client.

But I need some help. To test the CryptoHeaven environment I need some fellow experimenters to sign up for the company's free trial accounts. The nature of the system is such that, IMO, it isn't likely to be used as a substitute for regular collaboration. Rather, it looks like a good option for handling limited, sensitive projects.

If you're interested in testing CryptoHeaven with me download the company's free software and create a trial account. You can ping me via my username of Aristotle5.
