shield Security by Design

Legacy security that protects data, keys, and access without exposing the vault.

Inherrit combines zero-knowledge architecture, end-to-end encryption, and layered recovery controls so families can plan for succession without compromising privacy.

Live protection Always on

AES-256

Strong encryption for data at rest and in transit.

Recovery keys

Recover access without weakening the vault.

Zero knowledge

Verified

Even we cannot view your private documents or keys. Your data stays encrypted client-side.

How the security model works

A compact view of how each layer protects legacy records, documents, and recovery access.

devices

Encrypted on device

Sensitive information is encrypted before it leaves the device, keeping raw data out of transit and out of our systems.

cloud_lock

Stored as protected ciphertext

Vaulted content remains encrypted at rest with defense-in-depth controls around keys, sessions, and access paths.

admin_panel_settings

Recovery without exposure

Recovery keys and controlled fallback flows restore access without revealing the underlying secrets.

Security in Depth

Built so sensitive information stays private by design, with zero-knowledge architecture, layered protection, and recovery controls that preserve access without exposing your data.

shield_lock

Zero-Knowledge

Our architecture is designed so even our team cannot see your private records, keys, or stored documents.

Client-side enforced

encrypted

End-to-End Encryption

Data is encrypted on your device and remains protected in transit and at rest using AES-256 encryption.

Recovery & Defense

Recovery keys, key vaults, and layered safeguards provide access recovery without weakening the security model.

Recovery flows without exposure

security Controls

Protection layers users can understand

We keep the implementation strict and the experience simple. The app layers multiple controls so a single issue cannot expose the vault.

Key vaults

Keys are separated from content and protected with controls that limit access, retrieval, and reuse.

Session safeguards

Automatic lockouts, re-authentication, and scoped access reduce the chance of unauthorized viewing.

Defense in depth

We combine encryption, access rules, recovery checks, and vault isolation instead of depending on one control.

Recovery workflow

Recovery keys and trusted handoff paths are designed to restore access safely when the primary owner cannot.

Security questions, answered

The details below explain the boundaries of what is stored, protected, and recoverable.

Can Inherrit see my data?

No. The design is zero knowledge, which means the content remains encrypted and unreadable to the platform.

What if I lose access?

Recovery keys and controlled backup flows help restore access while keeping the vault protected from casual exposure.

How is encryption handled?

We use AES-256 encryption as part of a layered approach that protects content both in transit and at rest.

Why is this important for legacy planning?

Legacy records are sensitive by nature. Strong security keeps inheritance planning private until the right moment.

Build the plan, keep the plan private.

Legacy planning only works when the people you trust can access what they need without exposing everything else. That is the balance this app is built to deliver.
