Naeon is a data encryption and sharding method designed to secure data in potentially untrusted off-site storage locations. It uses AES-256 encryption with a randomly generated passphrase, followed by obfuscation techniques to make the encrypted file unidentifiable. The data is then sharded into one private chunk containing the encryption key and part of the data, and multiple public chunks. Each chunk is renamed using its SHA-512 hash, and all chunks are timestamped equally. A filename conversion table is created to restore the concatenation order during a restore. The method aims to guarantee confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data, regardless of the trustworthiness of the chosen storage environment, while protecting against data breaches and unauthorized access. Threshold Key Sharing further enhances security and resilience by splitting the private key into parts requiring cooperation from multiple parties for reconstruction, thereby minimizing single points of failure.
