Additional Security for Your iCloud

iCloud backups assist you in preventing data loss and allow you to access your data wherever you are. However, if you want to keep your data under your control and want no one but you to be able to access it, an additional security layer is necessary. Boxcryptor helps with that. Boxcryptor’s end-to-end encryption after the zero knowledge paradigm gives you full control over your files, pictures, and sensitive information. Boxcryptor protects your iCloud and gives you alone access to it on all platforms.

Seamless Integration of Boxcryptor with iCloud

When you install Boxcryptor, it creates a virtual drive and detects your iCloud automatically. In your iCloud folder in this virtual drive, you can manage all your data as you are used to. We recommend to create a new folder in the beginning, to encrypt it, and to copy all your files in there. This is the great thing about Boxcryptor: everything you add to an encrypted folder will be encrypted automatically. Encryption is on the fly, which means that you will not notice the encryption when you work with your files in this drive. Boxcryptor handles everything for you in this one safe place.

Questions and Answers

Can I still share files and folders, even with encryption?

Yes of course. You can easily share securely encrypted files and folders with other Boxcryptor users. For sharing with friends who do not use Boxcryptor or a cloud, you can use our service Whisply, which is fully integrated into Boxcryptor. However, at this point Whisply is only available for OneDrive, Google Drive and Dropbox. It is not implemented for iCloud yet.

Does Boxcryptor use up more storage space on my PC or Mac?

No, Boxcryptor does not use up more or double the space. Some users fear that we store files twice on the machine, encrypted, and unencrypted. This is not the case; the files are only stored once.
