Because the cloud was never yours—only your fortress is. For over a decade, we’ve been told that “the cloud” is the future. That it’s simple, safe, and scalable. That it’s yours. But let’s be honest and deal with the harsh truth—a truth that’s going to get me loads of hate from giant cloud providers. The […]
The internet as we know it relies on cryptography—quietly, constantly, and completely. Whether it’s messaging apps, banking systems, VPNs, or email, encryption is what keeps our data private and our communications secure. But in the not-too-distant future, quantum computing may break many of the cryptographic assumptions that currently hold the web together. At SealedWeb, we’re […]
In most modern tech stacks, privacy is an afterthought. It’s something patched in after features are shipped, after scale is reached, and often—after things go wrong. At SealedWeb, we believe that’s backward. Privacy isn’t a feature.It’s a foundational design principle. In this post, we’ll break down how SealedWeb approaches system design to prevent betrayal by […]
You’ll see it right under our name, on our website and our docs: Trust the Math. It sounds simple, maybe even cryptic—but it reflects one of the most important principles behind how SealedWeb is built. In this post, we’re going to break down exactly what it means—and why it matters. The Problem with “Trust Us” […]
Talk of Web3 is everywhere—blockchains, tokens, DAOs, dApps. Depending on who you ask, it’s either the future of the internet or just another buzzword waiting to fade. At SealedWeb, we believe in the principles behind Web3: user ownership, decentralization, and control without dependence on centralized platforms. But we also know that for most people, Web3 […]
For decades, the internet ran on an unspoken agreement between platforms and people: You use our services, and we’ll handle your data responsibly. That was the social contract. But somewhere along the way, that contract was broken. Data collection became surveillance Personalization became manipulation “Free” became the costliest word in tech At SealedWeb, we believe […]
At SealedWeb, we take privacy seriously—but that doesn’t mean we have to be boring about it. We’re building more than just technology—we’re creating a movement. A quiet, resilient force against the surveillance chaos that defines today’s internet. And every movement needs a face. That’s why we’d like you to meet our digital ally, Crypto Carl—our […]
Technology makes life easier: it’s supposed to remove friction, save time, and reduce effort. And it has. Technology has made life easier in many ways. But somewhere along the way, convenience became the top priority, and everything else—privacy, choice, transparency—took a back seat. At SealedWeb, we think it’s time to talk about the trade-offs that […]
Once upon a time, the biggest fear in network security was the man in the middle — the guy who sits between two communicating computers, intercepting their traffic, stealing passwords, and even hijacking sessions. But encryption caught up and made things more and more difficult for him. Security protocols like TLS, HTTPS everywhere, VPNs made […]
With over two decades of experience building secure systems and messaging infrastructure, I’ve learned one truth that’s hard to unlearn: privacy, once lost, rarely returns. I’ve spent my career working in the background—designing architectures, optimizing databases, hardening encryption layers—making sure systems quietly work the way they should. But in a world where sharing is necessary […]
