In the past years, cloud services have been one of the most popular information storage spaces, and the number of users of these services is increasing day by day. In the meantime, various companies such as Dropbox, Google Drive, Onebox, etc. have expanded their activities and provided other facilities to their users in addition to storage space. Today, in this post, we are going to introduce a cloud service that is different from other service providers to you, dear users. MEGA is the title of a high-security cloud storage service published by the Mega Ltd programming studio in the Android market for free. Unlike other mentioned applications, this program works in a different way and provides storage spaces in complete security to users. One of the most important features of this software compared to similar versions is its support for file encryption; In such a way that all the communication paths and even the saved files are encrypted in a special way and the information is kept in a special way. After uploading your files to the cloud servers of this program, you will have access to a set of management options through which you will be able to rename and delete your files or share them with your friends on social networks. Share socially. In addition, it is better to know that the dedicated space of this software is 30 GB per user, which is much higher compared to other cloud service providers.
MEGA provides user-controlled encrypted cloud storage and chat through standard web browsers, together with dedicated apps for mobile devices.
Unlike other cloud storage providers, your data is encrypted and decrypted by your client devices only and never by us.
Upload your files from your smartphone or tablet then search, store, download, stream, view, share, rename or delete your files any time, from any device, anywhere. Share folders with your contacts and see their updates in real time.
The encryption process means we cannot access or reset your password so you MUST remember it (unless you have your Recovery Key backed up) or you will lose access to your stored files.
End-to-end user-encrypted MEGA video chat allows for total privacy, and has been available through the browser since 2016. It has been extended to our mobile app, with chat history accessible across multiple devices.
Users can also easily add files to a chat from their MEGA cloud drive.
