The Challenges

  • As IT contractors, we handle various client accounts and sensitive user information on a daily basis and need to ensure it does not fall into the wrong hands.
  • Existing tools meant to ease the secure password sharing and exchange of other types of information are complicated.
  • As a result, our clients avoid using those tools, potentially compromising access to vital systems and placing their businesses in danger of substantial reputational and financial damages.

Our Contribution

  • We developed Duckist.com which balances ease of use with security.
  • The tool allows the user to generate self-destructing messages containing either text or media, that are encrypted on the client-side using the browser.
  • The server never gets to access the unencrypted contents of the message.

Our corporate clients get the full benefits of Duckist.com through a dedicated on-premise setup, ensuring complete anonymity and fail-safe password and file sharing within a controlled, closed system.
