Hello everyone,

It has been a busy few weeks at the FortKnoxster HQ and we are happy to announce we are listed on CoinMarketCap. Check link here.

About CoinMarketCap:

Founded in 2013, CoinMarketCap is the leading website for tracking the capitalization of various cryptocurrencies. There are currently over 200 exchanges ranked on CoinMarketCap today, but they have not listed a new exchange for quite some time. Their website has a strong influence on the market and any new exchange that wishes to be listed must meet their strict listing requirements regarding platform security, quality, total registered users, number of trading pairs, and trading volume.

We warmly welcome the thousands of new members to our Telegram community and on our FortKnoxster platform. #fortknoxster

Q&A: Questions from the Community

We have received very valuable feedback from the community on FortKnoxster v.0.9 along with some very cool questions from our members, here is an example of some of those questions that our members are asking. Questions are answered by Billy and Mickey, please keep them coming!

Q: Does FortKnoxster use PGP in their emails?

No we don’t use PGP in our encryption. We have our own encryption design based on some similar principles but covering much more, using strong public key cryptography and symmetric encryption with RSA, AES and also Elliptic Curve.

We take care of the key management where only you have access to your private keys using a derived key from your personal password and we use different private keys for decryption and signing based on the appropriate algorithm for the various crypto operations.

Our encryption covers confidentiality, message integrity and authenticity and also the identity by signing each encrypted message before sent to the receiver which can then be verified by the receiver.

Q: FortKnoxster encrypts the data on the client before it transfers that to the server, is it possible to verify the encryption before it reaches the server? A way for user to make sure the data is stored in the form that’s claimed by FortKnoxster?

Yes you can verify this by inspecting the client to server requests in your browser, where you will see that the data is end-to-end encrypted besides the TLS layer. But most importantly we are working on releasing all our client source code as open source where you can verify all our end-to-end encryption code.

Our end-to-end encryption is described in detail in our whitepaper, https://fortknoxster.com/whitepaper.pdf and our knowledge base here: https://fortknoxster.com/knowledge-base/

Q: Does FortKnoxster have servers at multiple locations? What happens if one server goes down?

Yes our servers are located at multiple locations. The FortKnoxster infrastructure is built with scalability and no-SPOF (Single Point Of Failure) in mind, meaning that, should one server go down it will not affect us. In fact we can handle multiple servers going down without affecting us. We are able to roll-out automatically more servers when needed.

Q: Can FortKnoxster make it possible for me to store my own data on hardware owned by me or is it still the FortKnoxster servers that users rely on?

FortKnoxster file storage is encrypted cloud storage, built into your back office. It’s easy to use, drag and drop, share files and folders. You can copy your folder and/or drag-and-drop it into your other folders.

Absolute Final reminder for our old Demo Version !

Please note that the old DEMO version of FortKnoxster located here: https://demo.fortknoxster.com will be shut down on the 1st September therefore it is important to extract/backup/copy (manually) any important information or documents you have stored as these will be removed and no longer available after this date.

Till the next, Onwards!
