Insert your startup key into SMiD and connect it to your local network.

2. Add your providers
Type “smid” in your web browser and follow the wizard to set up user accounts and cloud providers*.

3. Save your settings
Perform a SMiD Safeguard to be able to regenerate your SMiD in the case of damage to the device.

Robust Cloud Encryption
AES 256-bit encryption is immediate, automatic and round the clock. No cleartext copies ever stored permanently. You set timers to control how long local files stay unencrypted. You decide when you want them to disappear.
Strongest Access Protection
No other solution safeguards your data with long, internally-generated, random cryptographic keys and is bootable only with a unique startup key – that’s in your hands only. No amount of external guesswork can crack your SMiD.
Legal Compliance
SMiD complies with the most stringent privacy regulations in all sectors. Even the most sensitive data – legal files, confidential communications, patient profiles – is 100% protected with SMiD encryption and free of penalty risk.
Provider Independence
SMiD is not provider-bound. It gives you complete freedom to select the best combination of cloud providers for your business or personal information security needs.
Easy Setup - No Installation
SMiD is a plug and play data protection device. No client software installation is required. It’s as simple as working with a network-attached storage (NAS) server, but with vastly more advantages.
Data Loss Prevention
SMiD also eliminates any local risk of unwanted access, theft, loss or disaster, since there are no files stored locally.
Any System. Any Infrastructure.
Works with any type of IT infrastructure or operating system (Windows, Mac OS, Linux, iOS, Android).
Flexible Cost Savings
Switch providers as often as you like. Benefit from the lowest cloud storage prices available while optimizing storage space.
