Encryption Support on Storage & Browser SDK’s

• We are excited to announce the release of a new version of @spheron/storage and @spheron/browser-upload SDKs with enhanced security features. This update includes encryption and access control support powered by Lit Protocol's distributed key management layer.
• With this release, clients can now encrypt and decrypt data on the client side using on or off-chain conditions. This approach eliminates the need for a centralized key custodian and ensures secure data storage on the Open Web, such as IPFS, thereby enhancing security and privacy.
• Please refer to the updated updated Storage and Browser-Upload documentation.

Access Control Conditions

• Access control conditions have been introduced to provide flexible control over data access. The following examples demonstrate the versatility of these conditions:

  • Membership gating within a particular DAO.
  • Ownership of a specific ERC-721 or ERC-20 token.
  • The result of any smart contract or API call, including actions like following on Twitter.

• Access Control Conditions are compatible with most EVM chains, Cosmos, and Solana.

• Lit Protocol powers the access control conditions. For more information and implementation details, please refer to the docs.
