MaidSafe

MaidSafe is a Scottish technology company, founded in 2006 by David Irvine, that is developing the SAFE Network: a secure decentralised data network. The SAFE Network replaces the need for centralised servers with a peer-to-peer infrastructure that encrypts and distributes data to users across the globe. The SAFE Network is designed so that no individual or organisation can control or access user data. MaidSafe has been working on the SAFE Network since 2006 and raised over $5 million in venture capital in 2014 to accelerate development of the project.
