AI driven internet services collect information about you to build a virtual profile. Be the driver of that profile by keeping control of what you share. You may need a private place to store what you want to keep closed or share with chosen people only.
Choose freedom by having the right digital-identity for the task. Stay anonymous by being ephemeral where it is appropriate, use a trusted credential when the matter requires it.
The is no free lunch, they say, and consequently, if you want to keep you data for yourself, do not store it for free and unprotected. Keeping encrypted data on a network repository is fine, but the operators incentive should be customer satisfaction and not analysis of their activities. The voucher-exchange scheme integrated into the software allows to track and charge storage utilization precisely and at minimal cost.
The AON technology allows to efficiently distribute and synchronize changes made to a shared collection of files by means of change-sets exchanged via repository.
In combination with CUBE Storage, AON provides safe and transparent access to file-based information, such as images, mails, archives, libraries, source-code and other documents.
By encrypting data on-disk and in-flight, the file-system protects data from eavasdropers in a convenient way with no user-interaction.
The CUBE repository software allows to operate isolated and distributed storage units on system supporting the .NET framework, including Windows, Linux, MacOS and even the raspberry.
By joining the repository to a storage contingent, it can share network and storage capacity among a large number of nodes providing a redundancy at moderate cost.
CatChat
CatChat is a client application providing basic communications function based on AON and underlying CUBE storage repositories.
The application features:
- Private and Shared Collections
- Chat Sessions
- Contact Management
- Messaging
- Voucher Exchange
- Content Publication
Catchat can interact with multiple repositories and will dynamically establish new connections, as messages and other interactions take place.
CatChat is based on the AON Application Shell, which can be used to realise applications on the distributed file-system.
Freedom and digital-identity are not exclusive. Choose your credentials wisely and take advantage of trusted credentials, when needed, while any number of anonymous identities may let you glimpse into arenas where being incognito is crucial.
In CUBE256 there are three kinds of credentials:
- Anonymous Ephemeral Self Signed
- CUBE256 Domain Services CA
- Any other PKI infrastructure you like (*)
*) CUBE256 is open to PKI solutions based on the current standards. We have decades of experience with cryptographic applications and technologies and may be able to integrate your PKI infrastructure in a conventient and save way.
The CUBE repository software package can be used to launch a CUBE storage site on any device connected to the internet.
An operating CUBE repository can join a distributed storage contingent to profit from greater reliability at lower cost by sharing resources with others.
Repository host can be used for free to establish private storage facilities. Executables can be found in the downloads-section.
The desire for concise accounting of storage utilization led to the development of a voucher-exchange scheme suited to exchange digital assets between users, storage providers and other parties.
The vxcoin.net voucher-scheme is a cost-efficient and reliable means to exchange small amounts of conventional currencies suited to enable fair trade of storage capacity allocated on CUBE repositories.
The consensus algorithm employed in CUBE distribute repository configuration is fast and allows to run interactive transactions at a very low cost, anonymous and without leaving traces.
CUBE256 software is mainly written in C# with supporting native ANSI C code. It employs standard technologies, including:
- X.509, CMS and SSL implementations from .NET framework
- SQL: native, MSSQL, postgreSQL
- HTML, JS: pure web technology
- HTTPS, WebSockets: communication defaults

CUBE256 software is generally open-source. Documentation and source code is available for following components:
A number of tools were developed in conjunction with CUBE256:
CUBE256 and related software are products of Thomas Cerny located in Switzerland.
I am a passionate software developer focused on the user experience of the future, where digital-identity, privacy and convenience will play together.
After 20 years of hands-on development work I chose risk and decided to go for the distribute file-system. More on this in the CUBE File System whitepaper.
