Quite simply on the safe side
Exclusively German servers – 100% green
The security of your data is our top priority. Our data centres are among the most secure in the world and are certified by TÜV NORD according to ISO 27001. Data storage is GDPR-compliant. We run our data centres efficiently with green electricity from 100% renewable energy. This regenerative energy keeps our data centre operations entirely climate-neutral.
Certification
HiDrive meets all the criteria for security, processes, data protection and technical functions, as confirmed by the Tested Cloud Security seal from TÜV Saarland.
In addition, HiDrive has received certification as a Trusted Cloud from the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action. Criteria such as transparency, security, quality and legal conformity are checked for the award of this label. HiDrive fulfilled all of the requirements and was awarded Trusted Cloud certification.
Backups
HiDrive automatically creates regular backups of your files so that you can easily restore your data. You still remain completely in charge: It is entirely up to you how often a backup is created and for how long it is stored.
Device backups
We also provide device backups as an optional extra. Protect the data on your mobile devices – videos, music, calendars and contacts – from data loss and easily restore them, regardless of the operating system.
End-to-end encryption
With the optional zero-knowledge encryption, you can encrypt your files directly in the cloud software so that no one else can open or read them.
Two-factor authentication
You can enable two-factor authentication in the HiDrive web interface if you like. It works easily for all logins, even when using HiDrive with network protocols. Two-factor authentication is controlled by the authenticator app, which is installed on your mobile device.
Convenient sharing
Flexible access rights
Share files or folders with a simple link – password-protected, with expiry date or download limit if preferred. It also works the other way round, so you can share folders to upload files.

Frequently asked questions
What are my advantages with a cloud storage solution?
With cloud storage, you back up all your data at a single central location. You always have access to your files, from any location. Your data is always kept secure in our cloud storage. This kind of cloud storage is more secure than a local backup.
In addition, every user has access to all public folders and additionally to their own private folder in the HiDrive package. Not only does this mean effective protection of user data, it also safeguards privacy in the administration of projects and files. Sensitive information such as employee data can be placed in private folders. By contrast, all authorised users can access files that are needed by several people.
What kinds of data can I store in HiDrive?
You can store all conceivable data formats with HiDrive. So you can use a wide range of programs on various operating systems and devices to easily access the same secure online storage space whenever and wherever you want.
Storing large files in the cloud is simple with HiDrive: There is no limit on file size. The available storage space available is only limited by the product you booked. For example, you can easily save a large file to HiDrive if you want to back up an Adobe Premiere video project with 10 GB. You can also upload and save large Photoshop files and then share them on the file server. In addition, there is no limit on the number of files and folders you can upload to the cloud storage. You can save many individual files to just one folder: Doing so makes the administration and organisation of your online file storage easy and practical.
How does HiDrive secure my data?
Data protection and security are top priorities. That’s why HiDrive uses AES128 encryption for the storage of data. This ensures that your data is stored with a professional level of security and is fully protected against cybercrime. You can protect your data even more – with end-to-end encryption as an additional option. Only you will be able to view your files with this type of encryption (zero-knowledge) – no one else has access to your data.
