Four principles that guide every security decision.

Everabyte is engineered around a simple goal: protect customer data with layered security, clear operational controls, and strong infrastructure design.

PRINCIPLE.01Enforced

Encryption first

Data is protected in transit with TLS 1.3 and at rest with layered encryption: application-level encryption before storage, plus a storage-level layer within Everabyte's storage infrastructure.

How data moves through Everabyte.

Every file passes through a layered security model from upload to backup.

01Client

Secure preparation

Files are prepared for upload with security in mind before being committed to persistent storage.

StageClient
Check 1Prepared with security in mind
Check 2Integrity verified before commit
02Identity

Authentication

User authentication and session handling are separated from file protection logic. Session tokens are used for access control, not as decryption material.

StageIdentity
Check 1Tokens ≠ decryption keys
Check 2Sessions isolated
03Transport

Transport security

All network traffic is protected with TLS 1.3 to prevent interception during transfer between devices, APIs, and storage services.

StageTransport
Check 1TLS 1.3 only
Check 2No legacy fallback
04Storage

Encrypted storage

Stored objects remain protected as encrypted data, so the storage layer handles ciphertext rather than readable user content.

StageStorage
Check 1Ciphertext at rest
Check 2Storage layer isolated
05Retention

Retention protection

Retention and Object Lock controls, where enabled for the relevant storage configuration and provider, prevent retained objects from being modified or deleted until their configured retention period ends.

Isolation is layered — and it is not availability.

Different layers isolate different things. Isolation separates your data and services from other companies; it does not by itself provide high availability or disaster recovery, which depend on the contracted service.

Tenant isolation — always on

On the shared platform, each company's application data stays logically separated from every other company.

Application environment isolation — optional

A Managed Private Environment runs your application services in a dedicated environment, separated from other companies' instances.

PostgreSQL isolation — with a private environment

With a Managed Private Environment, your company receives its own PostgreSQL instance. The shared platform uses centrally operated PostgreSQL with logical tenant isolation.

Separate object storage

File storage objects live on Everabyte's separate object-storage architecture — never inside an application VM or PostgreSQL instance.

Backup protection

Retention and Object Lock controls, where enabled for the relevant storage configuration and provider, protect retained files on Everabyte's storage platform until their retention period ends. Database backups inside a Managed Private Environment follow the backup policy defined in your service agreement.

Availability is separate

Redundancy and uptime depend on the infrastructure and contracted service — isolation alone does not create high availability.

How Everabyte maps to recognized controls.

Everabyte applies its own security controls across encryption, access management, monitoring, and backup resilience. The infrastructure environment used by Everabyte is selected to support strong security, privacy, and operational reliability.

Answers for enterprise and security review.

This page gives enterprise teams a clear starting point for security review, due diligence, and procurement validation.

Q · 01Access

Q.Can Everabyte staff access customer files?

Two layers of encryption protect stored files — application-level before storage and storage-level at rest within Everabyte's storage infrastructure — and direct access to stored objects does not reveal the original file contents. Your decryption key stays under your control for the operations you trigger: Everabyte services use decryption keys and process decrypted content only inside controlled, logged workflows — your own operations and the platform's disclosed scheduled integrity verification — and no operator can read your files interactively. For Managed Private Environment or custom-module deployments, your order form or data processing agreement states what Everabyte can access.

Q · 02Encryption

Q.Is data encrypted in transit and at rest?

Yes. TLS 1.3 protects data in transit, and stored data is protected by two encryption layers: application-level encryption (AES-256-GCM) before storage and a storage-level layer within Everabyte's storage infrastructure. Master keys are protected through platform-managed key management.

Q · 03Recovery

Q.How can I restore my encrypted files?

Your recovery passphrase enables you to restore your encrypted files through Everabyte's secure recovery process. Keep your recovery passphrase secure and follow the instructions available in your account.

Q · 04Backups

Q.How are backups protected?

Stored files keep application-level encryption, and the storage layer adds its own encryption at rest. Retention and Object Lock controls are available where enabled for the relevant storage configuration: retained objects cannot be modified or deleted until their configured retention period ends.

Q · 05Due diligence

Q.Do enterprise customers get security documentation?

Security information, architecture details, and trust documentation can be shared during customer due diligence based on the scope of the request and the deployment model.

Q · 06Hosting

Q.Where is customer data hosted?

Hosting location depends on the selected infrastructure and deployment setup. Regional options can be discussed based on performance, residency, and contractual requirements.
