FAQ
How does Optical Isolation work?
Unlike traditional file sharing, Aegis never sends the actual code file to the recipient's device. Instead, our server renders the code into a secure, non-cacheable video stream. The viewer interacts with this stream, allowing them to read and review code without ever possessing the source file.
Is a webcam really required?
Yes. To ensure the highest level of security, we use real-time biometric verification. The webcam feed is processed locally on your device using TensorFlow to detect presence and ensure only the authorized individual is viewing the content. No video data is ever sent to our servers.
Can I download the code?
No. The Aegis Protocol is designed specifically to prevent downloads. Code is for eyes-only review. Copy-paste, printing, and downloading are strictly disabled at the protocol level.
What happens if I look away?
Our biometric monitoring detects if you look away or leave the screen. The secure container will immediately blur or lock the content until your presence is re-verified.
Is my data encrypted?
All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Project metadata is stored securely, and the rendered streams are ephemeral, existing only for milliseconds during transmission.
How long do links last?
Access links are single-use or time-bound based on the project owner's settings. Once a session is terminated or expires, the link becomes permanently invalid.
