Private cloud storage. Readable only by you.

Store, share and collect sensitive documents. Everything is end-to-end encrypted on your device before upload, so our servers only ever hold the encrypted version.

Watch it lock before it leaves.

Drop any file. It is encrypted right here in your browser, and this demo uploads nothing.

What can your cloud read?

Most storage encrypts your files with keys the company holds. ShieldFive encrypts them on your device, so we only ever store the encrypted version.

Fair questions.

Can ShieldFive see my files?

Not their contents. Files are encrypted on your device before upload, and our servers store only the encrypted version. Sign-in and some operational metadata stay visible to us; the Security page lists exactly what.

What happens if I forget my password?

Keep your recovery key somewhere safe. It restores your vault when you reset a forgotten password. Without it, a reset cannot bring back files that are already encrypted.

Do my clients need an account?

No. They open your request link in any browser and upload. Each file is encrypted on their device before it reaches us.

Is the free plan really free?

Yes. 5 GB of encrypted storage, no card and no time limit. Pay only when you need more space or firm features.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes, in any mobile browser. The iPhone and Android apps are in testing and not yet publicly released.
