Like any storage service, keeping your data stored and accessible requires covering the storage costs. The difference is that your data is stored across a decentralized network, where Datakeepers provide storage space, and users pay for the space they use.
Different services suit different needs. DeNet Storage is built for those who want to protect their data from unauthorized access, maintain control over their files, and avoid relying on a single point of failure.
If by โminingโ you mean the Watcher Node, you can learn more about its role and rewards here: https://t.co/NkTsoYXlMZ
Just a small glimpse of what people would save with DeNet ๐
Different things, same reason: they wouldn't want to wake up one day and find they have no access to them.
๐พ Got something worth saving? Join the #DeNetIt trend and take part in Cyber October in the DeNet app.
#DeNetCyberOctober #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth
Users can store virtually any type of file with DeNet. You can also enable Auto Backup on your device to automatically protect your files.
As for long-term accessibility, DeNet doesn't rely on a single company or data center. Files are encrypted, split into parts, and distributed across independent Datakeepers in a decentralized network. This reduces single points of failure, while on-chain verification helps ensure data integrity.
Storage is powered by GAS, which is consumed based on how much data you store and for how long. For example, 1,200 GAS lets you store 1 TB for 1 year or 100 GB for 10 years. You can always top up your GAS balance to extend your storage duration.
Security in everyday situations: travel โ๏ธ
Travel puts your digital habits to the test: unfamiliar networks, shared chargers, devices that can be lost or stolen. A few minutes of preparation can save you a lot of trouble.
โ Turn on 2FA, preferably with an authenticator app. SMS codes may be harder to receive when travelling abroad.
โ Update your devices and apps before travelling.
โ Be careful with public Wi-Fi. Fake hotspots can imitate legitimate networks in airports and hotels. Prefer mobile data or an eSIM when possible.
โ Use a VPN on public Wi-Fi. It encrypts your connection, making it harder for others on the same network to monitor your online activity.
โ Bring your own charger and avoid unfamiliar public USB ports.
โ Back up your files so a lost or stolen device doesn't mean losing your data, too.
Thanks to our #DeNetCyberOctober partner @thevpncompany for the tips on travel and online security! Their VPN service encrypts your connection, masks your IP, and follows an independently audited no-logs policy. One Premium account covers up to 10 devices simultaneously.
DeNet protects your data. https://t.co/mZeCrFfiS5 protects your connection ๐
And since it's #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth, we're putting that partnership to practical use: back up your data with DeNet for a chance to find a https://t.co/mZeCrFfiS5 Premium subscription in your weekly Mystery Box ๐
