Why Entropy?

Take control of your digital security with Entropy, the ideal secret-sharing application designed to be easy to use and integrate seamlessly into your existing security architecture. Unlike combined services that often create a single point of vulnerability, Entropy ensures that no single location has complete access to your data.

Whether you opt for trusted third-party encryption, archiving, or storage solutions like Tarsnap, Cryptomator, Veracrypt, Amazon Glacier, or even archival media stored in a secure vault, the choice and control are yours alone. Entropy empowers you to safeguard your data according to your preferences.

As part of a comprehensive security posture, Entropy ensures logical and physical separation between your data and its encryption key. This model requires consensus from a trusted group to access secured information, creating a robust chain of trust that combines technical, social, and legal safeguards.

Entropy was created to protect your digital legacy and ensure that important assets are accessible to associates or loved-ones even after your death or incapacitation. With unparalleled security it allows access to a wide range of digital assets — a lifetime of cherished memories, sensitive business information, or even valuable cryptocurrency wallets. With Entropy you can be confident that what matters most will be protected no matter what the future holds.
