Inspiration

It's 2023 and still a pain to ... secure the confidential files setup complex storage system with high growth, and maintain access control amongst teams. [https://ibb.co/yFWQY06]

What it does

The problem Squad: On-Chain Encrypted AES-RSA File Management solves In the world where Web3 and decentralisation are becoming mainstream, It is becoming more and more important to build proper org structures to manage different aspects of a DAO. Existing solutions for team management on Web3 personal projects by kids that are not well developed, and are just built on top of ipfs making all the information available to everyone. Existing encryption solutions are weak and can not scale beyond managing one person which makes sense as these software are only useful for personal use.

How we built it

SOLIDITY

REACT

TRUFFLE SUITE

POLYGON

IPFS / FILECOIN

Challenges we ran into

Building the encryption scheme: since there is nothing of this sort on the planet, we came up with a unique encryption scheme combining asymmetric and symmetric encryption to allow only people in a particular group of an organisation to access each others files whereas other teams will be unable to access them(will not be able to decrypt them) Edge cases: one interesting case that was especially challenging to tackle was when a new person is being added to a team. When the user joins, he would not have access to any file in the organisation as his public key will be new. We were able to tackle this by dynamically decrypting all aes keys by the admin user who adds people to the organisation and re encrypting them with the new public key and storing them on IPFS Implementing new protocols like bionomy and Push protocols was challenging as we had never worked with them before. But once we were comfortable with them, we were able to implement them well

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Successfully Ecrypting and Managing PNGS, JPEGS, MP4s, MP3s, PDFs.........

What's next for Squad

expanding all over the world.
