SpiderOak represents a different approach - an approach that places you at the center and in control of your digital life. Our innovative and interactive application is geared specifically toward helping you manage, understand, and share what matters most.

SpiderOak works across all of your computers, devices, and platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux) - providing universal converage always.

While building the project, the developers of SpiderOak devoted to the seven following principles:

Privacy Guaranteed.

Whatever you back up and store on your SpiderOak Network should be for your eyes only. As a result, SpiderOak uses the most advanced method of protecting your data available. First, we use a series of encryption algorithms embedded throughout the software to keep your data secure.

Second, we don't store your password or the plaintext of your encryption keys so at NO point can your data ever be exposed to anyone but you. It is what we call a true 'zero-knowledge environment' and it guarantees the most privacy available on the Internet.

Automated Backup

SpiderOak automatically recognizes any new and/or edited document, photo, song, or movie and backs it up in real time without you ever having to think, wonder or worry. This automated system works quietly in the background - never slowing down applications or Internet connections.

The Central Place

Between work and home, your desktop or laptop, SpiderOak is the central place for all your valuable digital possessions. As such, we encourage users to download the SpiderOak software on as many computers as they need to ensure complete protection only being charged for the amount of storage used.

Access Anytime, Anywhere

Whether on the road, at home, or on vacation, SpiderOak allows access to all of your stored digital items from any Internet connected device.

Share Away No Registration Required!

Share your documents, photos, or any digital possession with whomever you would like - the choice is up to you. And share freely - your guests will never be asked to register.

Fault Tolerant Design

SpiderOak was designed and implemented by engineers with a background in fault tolerant systems where an acceptable margin of error of 0.000% is standard.

No matter how your hardware, operating system, or electrical power might fail, SpiderOak makes it impossible for any of those occurrences to corrupt your back up result. This is a significantly different and enhanced approach to ensure your data is always kept secure.

Versioning. Versioning1. Versioning2.

Knowing that files do get overwritten or accidentally deleted, SpiderOak created an innovative versioning technology. This allows a user to access any version of a file from inception creating an environment where nothing is ever lost.
