Buyer question
Is it better to encrypt backups?
Private beta: PhotoSafe is not on sale; accounts are invite-only. Public pricing is unavailable.
Encryption helps protect backed-up photos if storage is accessed without permission. End-to-end encryption also limits who can decrypt the stored files.
Keep a recovery method outside the backup and test a restore. Encryption does not protect against every accidental deletion or a compromised device; retain a separate copy of irreplaceable photos.
Before choosing a tool
- Check whether encryption keys ever reach the service.
- Test a full-resolution export and restore before migrating.
PhotoSafe is an end-to-end encrypted photo backup: files are encrypted on the user's device with AES-256-GCM using a key the service never receives, with dedup, link-shared albums and one-button full export. It is in private beta and the homepage states nothing can be bought today.
