Welcome to Myota—the world’s first cyber storage software platform with built-in quantum-resilient encryption, ransomware protection, and always-on immutable backups. This guide walks you through the essential steps for onboarding, using, and managing your Myota bucketZero Workspace (bZw).

2. Understanding bucketZero: Myota’s Cyber Storage Platform

Myota's "Shred and Spread" file encryption technique ensures confidentiality and resilience by:

  • Splitting files into multiple encrypted "chunks"

  • Encoding each chunk into "shards" with metadata and one-time keys

  • Distributing shards across multiple secure storage locations

This architecture protects against ransomware, data loss, and unauthorized access.
