Secure online storage service Wuala launches encrypted iPhone app

The secure online storage service Wuala is going for the iPhone users who demand secure mobile applications. Unlike some other file sharing apps, Wuala encrypts and decrypts files directly on the iPhone or iPod Touch, using client-side encryption.

As a result, files you send to your Wuala account are so secure that even Wuala staff can’t access them, because the password never leaves the device. In that sense, I can see it being used by organizations such as Wikileaks and their sources for sharing confidential documents.

Users can browse, share and view files on their iOS-powered device as well as open them with selected applications. Moreover, there’s the option to save select file types offline for later access when there’s no network connection around.

Wuala’s web service also allows/supports seamless automatic backup, sync and file encryption. Their iPhone app is available as a free download and the AppStore link is below.
