Most apps encrypt the data for all their users with a shared key. This means that company employees, third parties, and malicious actors with that key can see everything. With OpenSecret, every user has their own private vault. 4/10

In 2023, the average cost of a data breach was $5 million, with some over $1 billion. OpenSecret renders a data breach useless. If hackers get in, they enter a virtual hallway of locked private vaults. Leaked data is gibberish, a secret in the open that is unreadable. 5/10

Secure enclaves in the cloud. It's similar to what Apple is doing with Apple Intelligence. We're bringing it to every platform. A more technical blog post will detail more in the future.

"The user doesn't have to worry about losing a private key and can jump into using your app." Could you elaborate on how this could work? If the private key is used to locally encrypt user data, how could the user recover from the loss of the private key? Or, if the encryption key is derived from the user's login credentials, how does Private Key Management allow the recovery of a private key? Many thanks!
