Offline encrypted archive custody
We preserve encrypted archives beyond network reach, maintain their integrity, and perform bespoke authorized decryption when the hardware and economics are ready.
01 / SERVICE
Long-term encrypted data needs more than capacity. It needs media stewardship, cryptographic integrity and a recovery path designed before future compute makes decryption commonplace.
Customer-authorized encrypted archives are inventoried, hashed, copied to appropriate preservation media and held beyond routine network reach.
Every recovery engagement is assessed individually. There is no anonymous upload, instant cracking interface or shared public corpus.
02 / PROCESS
Authority, archive, encryption, condition and objective.
Inventory, hashes and custody manifest are established.
Redundant copies remain isolated and periodically verified.
Hardware progress, methods, cost and probability are reviewed.
Approved work occurs in isolation; output is released securely.
03 / READINESS
A recovery window depends on the encryption scheme, keyspace, implementation, available key material, archive value, target data and the cost curve of suitable hardware.
Algorithm, mode, key derivation, implementation version and configuration determine which methods are plausible.
Known plaintext, partial credentials, damaged key stores, metadata and representative samples can change feasibility.
We compare probable workload with available hardware, energy, time, budget and the value of the target outcome.

05 / ENGAGEMENT
For organisations that need encrypted material preserved now with integrity evidence and a defined retrieval policy.
For archive owners who need a technical and commercial view of whether recovery is practical today.
A bespoke statement of work covering authorized methods, infrastructure, milestones, custody and release.
