Why do I need end-to-end encryption?

End-to-end encryption is essential for protecting your privacy and ensuring that only you and your intended recipients can access the files you send.

With traditional file transfer services, even if they claim to encrypt your files, the service provider often has the ability to decrypt and access your data. This creates a significant privacy risk, as your files could be viewed, analyzed, or shared without your consent.

Here are some key reasons why end-to-end encryption is important:

• Privacy: End-to-end encryption ensures that only you and the person you share the link with can access the unencrypted files. The service provider has no way to decrypt or view your data.
• Security: By encrypting files in your browser before they are uploaded, end-to-end encryption protects your data from potential breaches or unauthorized access on the server side.
• Control: You maintain full control over who can access your files. Without the secret key embedded in the link, no one else can decrypt the data.
• Compliance: For businesses and individuals handling sensitive information, end-to-end encryption helps meet privacy and data protection regulations by ensuring that personal data is not exposed to third parties.

By using end-to-end encryption, aero.zip ensures that files are encrypted in your browser before they are uploaded, and the secret key never leaves your device. This means that we, the service provider, have no way to decrypt or access your files. Only you and the person you share the link with can access the unencrypted data.

This level of security is crucial in today's digital landscape, where data breaches and unauthorized access are common. End-to-end encryption provides peace of mind, knowing that your sensitive information remains private and secure.
