CYFS (Cyber File System) is a next-generation decentralized application protocol designed to redefine internet infrastructure by replacing traditional HTTP and DNS with a content-addressed, owner-controlled system. It allows apps to run entirely peer-to-peer, where users fully own their data and devices participate in the network without central servers. CYFS uses innovative technologies such as object-capability security and named data networking to offer performance, security, and offline operability. It is especially geared towards building Web3 applications and digital sovereignty ecosystems.

Features

  • Decentralized, content-addressed file and object system
  • Full ownership of data by users and app developers
  • Object-capability-based access control and security
  • Built-in support for offline and intermittent connectivity
  • Replaces DNS and HTTP with native CYFS protocol
  • Peer-to-peer networking without centralized backends
  • Identity and reputation system for trust and discovery
