Security and privacy


PROTECTING YOUR DATA AND RESPECTING YOUR PRIVACY

We use the most advanced security and privacy measures and tools to protect your
information and put you in control of your data.

Start storing data securely



THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF ONLINE SECURITY AND PRIVACY

We use zero-knowledge encryption, also known as user-controlled end-to-end
encryption, to protect your data online, even when sharing. This means that only
you and those you share information with have the keys to see, read, or listen
to that data on MEGA. For anyone else, including MEGA, the data would appear as
gibberish, and they would find it impossible to read or understand.

Learn more



PRIVACY FIRST

We believe that everyone should be able to store data and communicate securely
and privately online.
That’s why we follow the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation
(GDPR)—the strongest privacy and security law in the world. All the GDPR
protections and rights apply to all our users, wherever they may live.
Mega’s Terms of Service, Privacy and Data Policy, Takedown Guidance Policy and
Contact Details provide all the disclosures and explanations required by the
GDPR.




"NO ONE SHALL BE SUBJECTED TO ARBITRARY INTERFERENCE WITH HIS PRIVACY, FAMILY,
HOME OR CORRESPONDENCE […]. EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO THE PROTECTION OF THE LAW
AGAINST SUCH INTERFERENCE […]."

—Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 12.


YOU CONTROL EVERYTHING WITH YOUR PASSWORD

All your data on MEGA is encrypted with keys generated from your password. It’s
your main encryption key. What makes this so secure is that no one has access to
your password apart from you — not even us.
Some cloud storage providers hold the decryption keys, but with MEGA, you
control the encryption. You hold the keys and you decide who can, and how they
can, access your files.




RESTORE ACCESS TO YOUR ACCOUNT WITH A RECOVERY KEY

Your recovery key further protects your account from cyber attacks.
Our no compromise approach to security means we can neither send you password
reset links nor do anything on our end to let you in if you forget your
password. The only way to regain access to your MEGA account is with your
recovery key. No key, no access — so make sure you keep your recovery key
somewhere safe.

Learn more



COMPLETE CONTROL EVEN WHEN SHARING



Send decryption key separately




Every item on MEGA has a unique decryption key. When you share a link, by
default the decryption key is sent along with it. But for added security, you
can also choose to export and send the decryption key separately. The person who
receives the link needs to enter the key before they can open it. Learn more.

Set permissions




Set full, read and write, or read-only permissions to control how you’d like
your contacts to access your shared folders.

Password-protected links




You can create password-protected links to your shared files and folders stored
on MEGA. Available for Pro and Business users.

Expiring links




You can make your shared data available for a limited time by putting an expiry
date on shared links. Find out more information about sharing data on MEGA.
Available for Pro and Business users.


GET AN EXTRA LAYER OF SECURITY WITH 2FA

We support two-factor authentication (2FA) as an added layer of protection to
your MEGA account. Once 2FA is enabled, whenever you log in or make changes to
your account you will need to enter a 6-digit code from your authenticator app.

Learn more



RECOVER FROM RANSOMWARE ATTACKS

Alongside our always-on security features, our robust file versioning and
recovery features protect your data from ransomware attacks. In case of a
ransomware infection, you may still be able to retrieve older versions of your
files that have not yet been encrypted by the malware.

DESIGN AND SECURITY PROCESSES

We publish MEGA’s design and security processes in a whitepaper. View
whitepaper.

SOURCE CODE

We make the complete source code for our client apps available to the public.
This allows interested parties to independently examine the code for security,
integrity, and correctness. View source code.
