Memory Bank

A Family Story. That Outlives The Cloud.

Cloud photo libraries quietly disappear. Accounts close, providers pivot and irreplaceable family memories vanish with them. A Firevault Memory Bank holds your photographs, recordings and family history physically disconnected and preserved for generations.

Why OSS

Memory Bank

Your most sensitive data deserves protection that goes beyond software. Firevault provides the only storage that is physically unreachable by design.

Why Cloud Memory Storage Fails

An entire family history is one closed account away from gone.

Provider Will Outlive Nobody

Cloud photo services are subscription products, not heirlooms. Lapsed payments, closed accounts and provider changes erase decades of memories overnight.

Format Decay

HEIC, proprietary live formats and platform-locked albums become unreadable as standards shift. Your grandchild may never see the photographs you took today.

Single Point Of Loss

When everything lives in one cloud account, one breach, one death, one lost password ends the family record.

The Reality

This is already happening to personal data.

Co-op: 6.5 Million Members' Personal Data Stolen

Attackers exfiltrated personal data of all 6.5 million Co-op members. Personal photographs, family details, and contact information stored alongside membership data were all taken.

BBC News, 2025

LastPass: 1.6 Million UK Users' Private Data Exposed

Hackers stole encrypted vaults and personal data from LastPass. Users who stored personal links, notes, and family information alongside credentials had everything exposed.

Capita: 6 Million People's Personal Records Accessed

The ICO fined Capita £14 million after hackers accessed personal data of over 6 million people, including personal records, correspondence, and family information held by the outsourcer.

The Scenario

Forty years of photographs. Lost in a single email.

A family migrates four decades of photographs into a single popular cloud library. Years later the account is compromised through a phishing email and silently wiped by the attacker. The provider's recovery window has expired. The family loses every digital photograph of two grandparents who have since passed. With a Firevault Memory Bank, those memories would have been physically disconnected and untouchable.

"Some things should never depend on whether the cloud feels like keeping them."

The OSS Memory Bank

Hold the family record offline. Pass it on intact.

Your Memory Bank holds photographs, recordings, letters, family histories and milestone files inside a physically disconnected vault. Format-stable, identity-locked, retrievable by named family for generations.

  • Offline Secure Storage for photographs, video and audio archives, offline by default and reachable per session
  • Tamper-evident custody for letters and family history records
  • Format-stable preservation that outlives apps and accounts
  • Identity-locked retrieval by named family members

Take Personal Media Off Cloud Services

Step 1 of 3

Photographs, recordings, letters, and family histories are taken off iCloud, Google Photos, and cloud drives and written to physically disconnected RAID 1 drives inside a Firevault Bunker. No subscription dependency. No provider risk.
