Memory Box Becoming incriptus

Memory Box, a technology company founded in Adelaide, Australia has announced it is changing its trading name to incriptus Ltd.

The company introduced its technology in 2009. Given interest from Australian and American channel partners to market the technology under their own brand name, rather than Memory Box, the company has changed its name and its brand identity to incriptus.

Now, with a new identity and renewed focus, the company is offering its technology to channel partners as a "powered by incriptus" backup solution.

incriptus technology has introduced the concept of distributed security. Until now cloud backup has meant sending files to large, remotely located data centres. Recent natural disasters in Australia, New Zealand and Japan have demonstrated the vulnerability of such data centers – even when they have built-in redundancy.

The distributed nature of the technology increases security, not only by encrypting the files, but by fragmenting them, encrypting them again, and finally distributing the pieces across computers throughout the incriptus network. This means that no complete file resides on any single computer or any single location.

According to incriptus founder and CEO, Trevor Glen, "Our technology has resulted in data backup that is innately secure and intrinsically scalable."

incriptus is the term that defines this process of encrypting, fragmenting and distributing data over the specialised network. Now, it also serves as the trading name and will appear in markets as the technology that empowers data backup – marketed by incriptus’ channel partners.
