Finance File

Your Financial Life. Off The Internet.

Tax records, statements, mortgage paperwork and pension documents shape your financial future. A Firevault Finance File keeps them physically disconnected from the internet and retrievable only when you authorise it.

Why Cloud Finance Storage Fails

Your financial paperwork is a target. Treat it like one.

01

Cloud Folder Sprawl

Tax returns, statements and pension paperwork accumulate across email, cloud drives and accountant portals. Most users cannot say where everything actually lives.

02

Adviser And Accountant Risk

Shared folders with accountants, mortgage brokers and IFAs persist long after the engagement ends, often with full historical access.

03

Pension And Long-Tail Loss

Pension and investment paperwork must survive forty-plus years. Cloud accounts rarely do. Lost documentation costs real money at retirement.

The reality

This is already happening to financial records.

Every incident below is a matter of public record. Each one involved data that was reachable from a live network at the moment of compromise.

01

LastPass: Financial Credentials of 1.6 Million UK Users Exposed

Finance File

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

The Scenario

Seven years of tax records. Gone in one breach.

A self-employed professional shares a cloud folder with his accountant containing seven years of tax returns, bank statements and mortgage paperwork. The accountant's account is breached. Within weeks he is targeted by a tailored impersonation scam quoting his real income, mortgage balance and bank. He almost authorises a £42,000 transfer. With a Firevault Finance File, none of that detail would have been online to harvest.

"Your financial life is a roadmap for fraud. Do not leave it on the internet."
