Distributed cloud service company Volterra is launching a new service to encrypt and share public data without the need for passwords and public keys.
VoltShare is available as downloadable software (or an API and SDK) that operates locally on a PC or mobile device to easily encrypt sensitive data for sharing with target recipients through email or via existing collaboration platforms such as Slack, Teams and Dropbox.

With VoltShare the user downloads the application, registers and creates an account. They then simply add text and/or attach a file, create a policy based on the recipients' email address and duration, and share the encrypted content via email or their existing collaboration tool.
When the recipient gets the encrypted data, they decrypt it using VoltShare, as long as they're using the email address specified by the sender and are within the specified timeframe, the data decrypts automatically.

VoltShare is available from today as a free software download for base users and there's a paid enterprise subscription for increased security and compliance.

Q: How is this technology different from solutions that claim end-to-end encryption?
End-to-end encryption is not difficult to achieve using a secure encryption algorithm if a sender and recipient(s) securely share passwords or their PGP keys. However, neither of these are easy to share and keep track of, and do not provide policy-based controls like time limits or revocation as needed.

VoltShare does not use passwords for recipients to decrypt their shared content — just a piece of information the sender already knows — e.g. recipient’s email address. In addition, VoltShare provides increased security and compliance through a broad set of policy-based controls and revocation capabilities, as well as detailed logs and analysis.
