Offline Secure Storage (OSS) for Business

Secure Sensitive Business Data

Crown jewels, intellectual property, and trade secrets define your competitive advantage. If they are connected to the internet, they are one breach away from becoming public.

Why OSS

We Think This Is Hard to Ignore

The average UK data breach costs £3.5 million, and 60% of small businesses close within six months of an attack. At Firevault, your crown jewels live on dedicated hardware that is physically unreachable between sessions.

What is Going Wrong

Business-critical data is too exposed.

Always Online

Connected systems keep your most valuable data permanently exposed.

Data Sprawl

Critical files spread across cloud services, devices, and shared drives.

IP Leakage

Trade secrets and competitive intelligence leak through compromised endpoints.

The Reality

Crown jewels are already being stolen.

Jaguar Land Rover: £1.9 Billion Cost to UK Economy

The Scenario

Your competitor launches your product.

Six months of R&D. Proprietary designs. Competitive pricing models. All stored on a shared drive that was compromised three months ago. You did not know until your competitor launched first. With OSS, your crown jewels were never online to steal.

"The IP that built your business deserves protection that matches its value."

How Firevault Stops This

Remove crown jewels from every system attackers target.

Your IP, pricing models, R&D files, and trade secrets are taken out of shared drives, cloud folders, laptops, and collaboration tools, and consolidated onto dedicated RAID 1 drives inside a Firevault Bunker. Those drives have no internet connection. No cloud sync. No endpoint to compromise. When your team needs access, a physical connection is created after identity verification. For Storage and Enterprise tiers, automated sync runs within scheduled access windows via API or SFTP. When the session ends, the drives disconnect. The files no longer exist anywhere an attacker can reach.

  • No longer always online, crown jewels are removed from cloud services, shared drives, and endpoints, and placed on hardware with no network connection
  • No more data sprawl, IP is consolidated onto dedicated drives in one verified location, not scattered across systems you cannot fully control
  • No IP leakage path, with no network interface, no compromised laptop or credential can reach your trade secrets, pricing models, or R&D
  • Physical disconnection between sessions, when work is complete, the drives disconnect. There is no persistent connection for an attacker to follow

Remove IP from Connected Systems

Step 1 of 3

Trade secrets, R&D files, pricing models, and competitive intelligence are removed from shared drives, cloud folders, email attachments, and employee devices. They are consolidated onto dedicated RAID 1 drives inside a Firevault Bunker. The data no longer exists on systems that are always online and always a target.

OSS Butterfly for Crown Jewels

One Vault, every party, every stage of the strategic workstream.

Offline Secure Storage sits at the centre of the firm's crown-jewel custodians, owned by the executives accountable for IP, strategy and competitive advantage. R&D capture and IP intake feed the crown-jewel vault on one set of wings; the specialist advisor network and the live strategic workstreams the firm runs in parallel form the other. Nothing is reachable between sessions, and every touch is logged for board, audit and counsel review.
