Cairn Vault: in development

File storage with clearer control over access.

Cairn Vault is being built for keeping files, sharing them with simple controls, and revoking access when it needs to end.

Concept page only. Cairn Vault does not accept accounts, uploads, or real files today.

Sharing controls

Password protection, expiry, and revocation are planned for shared links.

First release

What Cairn Vault is aiming to include.

The first version is planned as a focused file-storage service. The exact security model, limits, and retention rules will be published before real customer files are accepted.

01

Store files

Upload and download your own files from a single, simple workspace.

02

Share with controls

Create a link, add a password when needed, and set an expiry.

03

See access status

See whether a shared link is active and revoke it when access needs to change.

04

Recover access

Build recovery into the account from the start, rather than add it later.

Before launch

Real files need a higher bar.

Vault will not ask people to trust it with their files until the storage, recovery, access, and deletion behaviour is ready to explain and test.

Access changes

Shared access should be visible and removable without hunting through settings.

Password-protected links

A shared link should be able to require a separate password when that is appropriate.

Expiry and revocation

Expired and revoked links must stop the service from providing further access.

Clear limits

We will state what a control can do and where it cannot undo a file that has already been downloaded.

Cairn Vault waitlist

Join the list for the beta.

We will get in touch when there is a beta worth testing. There are no accounts, uploads, payments, or storage service today.
