Any Plans To Incorporate A Data Checksum?

Hi, Icedrive Team. I’m a long-time subscriber/supporter. With all the scary legal assaults on data privacy going on, especially in the West, a lot of us are becoming even more concerned about governments excepting themselves from data privacy “rights” consumers might have. Like many other Icedrive subscribers, I’m a big supporter of your privacy-first stance. But for those who encrypt super-sensitive files before uploading to the cloud, how can we be confident what’s in the Icedrive cloud is an exact copy of what’s on our local drives? (I’ve posted elsewhere about downloading a considerable number of corrupted/changed files from Icedrive cloud while the original files remain whole on my local drives.) Does Icedrive have in the works any plan to incorporate a data-integrity check (like checksum) of uploaded data and original local files? Is this possible while still maintaining client data privacy?

A quick second question. What are Icedrive’s plans to mitigate the threats from quantum computers on the horizon?

Thanks for your team standing up for consumers’ rights to data privacy!

Hi @Abe

We take data integrity seriously. While we don’t currently offer built-in checksum verification, it’s something our development team may explore. Our zero-knowledge encryption ensures that your data remains private and secure, making it one of the most trusted methods available.

We also continuously monitor and update our encryption standards to keep your data fully protected with Icedrive.

Please do. It would be greatly appreciated.
