Once you create an encrypted drive in your Nygma Cloud account, the next step is to start adding your data to it. Whether you want to upload important files, organize folders, or capture and store images directly from your device’s camera, Nygma makes the process simple and completely secure.
Every file you add is encrypted on your device before upload, ensuring that no one—not even Nygma—can access your content. This maintains the platform’s zero-knowledge privacy standard, where encryption keys never leave your device. The upload process is optimized for speed and reliability, whether you are using the web app, mobile app (coming soon), or desktop client (coming soon).
This article explains the different methods for adding data to your encrypted drive, including how to:
- Upload files and folders securely from your device
- Instantly capture and save images using your device’s camera
- Manage and organize your uploaded content within the drive
