MEGA Privacy

In early 2013, when MEGA was launched, the idea of global mass surveillance by rogue governments was often dismissed as a conspiracy theory. However, after Edward Snowden's disclosures in the summer of 2013, public opinion shifted dramatically and it became clear that relying on policy to protect user data was not adequate. To truly secure user data, MEGA is designed with strong end-to-end encryption, allowing for maximum usability without sacrificing security. This is why MEGA is the only cloud storage provider with browser-based high-performance end-to-end encryption. To demonstrate its commitment to security, MEGA requires users to collect entropy during signup, does not offer a password reset feature, and utilizes browser-specific ways to conduct file transfers. Today, millions of people rely on MEGA to store and serve petabytes of data, knowing that their security is ensured.
