Description

Diode offers a suite of privacy-first collaboration tools designed for organizations where security is essential. Their services include secure messaging across organizations, ensuring strict confidentiality with advisors and consultants. Diode facilitates file sharing without relying on cloud storage, using a decentralized architecture to share files directly between team members, preventing access by Diode or any third party. It also provides a safer alternative to traditional VPNs for accessing applications remotely, allowing users to tunnel directly to their tools or access them from a "safe" region. The platform is built on decentralized technology with 256-bit end-to-end encryption, ensuring that Diode never has access to user data. Diode’s next generation solutions eliminate third-parties at all levels of the communications stack without requiring self-hosted servers. This is made available through four primary components: the Network, an open, permissionless secure communication network using blockchain technology; Collab, a cross-platform secure messaging app; the CLI, a command-line interface tool for building on the Diode Network; and the Vault, a hardware device that runs both Collab and the CLI.
