What is offline secure storage?

Offline secure storage (OSS) is a data protection method where data is physically disconnected from the internet when not in use. Unlike cloud storage, data stored offline has zero remote attack surface — it cannot be hacked, ransomed or accessed remotely because it is not connected to any network. Firevault provides this through hardware-encrypted vaults that are physically isolated.

How does Firevault protect against ransomware?

Firevault protects against ransomware by physically disconnecting your data from the internet. Ransomware can only encrypt data it can reach over a network. When your data is stored offline in a Firevault, ransomware attacks cannot reach it. Even if your entire network is compromised, your offline vault remains untouched and intact.

How much does Firevault cost?

Firevault Vault starts from £75 per month (inc VAT) for individuals. Business Storage starts from £360 per month (inc VAT). Enterprise Platform pricing is available on request. All plans include hardware encryption, identity verification, and physical disconnection by default.

Who is Firevault designed for?

Firevault is designed for individuals protecting passports, wills and crypto keys; professionals such as solicitors, accountants and consultants protecting client data; SMEs and businesses protecting crown jewel data; and regulated industries including healthcare, financial services and legal sectors requiring offline backup for compliance with GDPR, NIS2, DORA and FCA regulations.

Is Firevault GDPR compliant?

Yes. Firevault is designed to support GDPR compliance by keeping sensitive personal data physically isolated and offline. Physical disconnection ensures data is not exposed to network-based attacks, supports data minimisation principles, and provides an audit trail of access. Firevault is also designed to support NIS2, DORA, FCA and SRA compliance requirements.

What is a physical air gap?

A physical air gap is a security measure where a computer or storage device is completely isolated from the internet and all unsecured networks. Unlike a logical or software air gap, a physical air gap cannot be bridged remotely. Firevault uses a Layer 1 physical air gap — your data is stored on hardware that is physically disconnected from any network when not in active use.

Asset Register

Everything You Own. Quietly Documented.

Property deeds, vehicle titles, art provenance and high-value possessions all need proof. A Firevault Asset Register holds those records physically disconnected from the internet, ready when you need them.

Why OSS

Asset Register

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

Why Cloud Asset Registers Fail

Ownership is only as strong as the proof you can produce.

Scattered Documentation

Deeds, titles, valuations and provenance papers live across cloud drives, email, lawyer portals and filing cabinets. Most owners cannot produce a complete inventory on demand.

Provenance Gaps

For art, antiques and collectibles, missing provenance reduces value and complicates sale. Cloud accounts are the wrong custodian for irreplaceable papers.

Estate And Succession Risk

On death or incapacity, executors routinely struggle to identify, locate and prove assets. The result is delay, dispute and lost value.

The Reality

This is already happening to personal records.

The Scenario

An estate held up for two years.

An executor inherits responsibility for an estate including three properties, a classic vehicle and a small art collection. Half the supporting documentation lives in a deceased spouse's cloud account that no one can access. Probate is delayed, two assets sell below market and the family loses an estimated £180,000. With a Firevault Asset Register, the executor would have retrieved a complete, dated inventory within hours.

"What you own should be documented somewhere your family can actually reach."

The OSS Asset Register

Hold the proof of ownership offline. Retrieve it when ownership is questioned.

Your Asset Register holds property deeds, vehicle titles, art provenance, valuation records and high-value receipts inside a physically disconnected vault. Authorised retrieval, audited access, complete inventory on demand.

Take Ownership Records Off Cloud Drives
