Internxt Drive
Internxt Drive is a file storage service for syncing and backing up files with zero-knowledge encryption. Internxt also says Drive uses post-quantum encryption, including Kyber 512 and AES-256. Users can share files through encrypted, password-protected links and revoke them. Scheduled encrypted backups and file versioning are available. Drive has apps for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android, plus web access and an API. Developers can use the Internxt CLI for command-line access to Drive data, with WebDAV support; Rclone and NAS support are also listed for syncing, backup and management. Internxt says its code is publicly available on GitHub and externally audited. Its product page states HIPAA, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 compliance. The Free plan provides 1 GB of encrypted storage at free. Annual plans are listed at €9.99 a year for Essential, €19.99 a year for Premium and €29.99 a year for Ultimate; each is billed monthly for a one-year term. Storage ranges from 1 TB to 5 TB across those plans, with file-size and trash-retention limits varying by tier.
