What is Secrets Vault?
Secrets Vault is an innovative cybersecurity technology that helps companies protect sensitive data and control access to their systems.
It uses advanced post-quantum cryptography to guarantee privacy, integrity, and security.
Users just need to provide a harmless-looking image, which can be stored anywhere, even on social media, offering both resilience and convenience.
Built around an SDK, Secrets Vault powers two groundbreaking solutions:
Visual Passcodes
Redefine authentication with image-based access, powered by visual cryptography.
Move beyond traditional passwords with a secure, intuitive solution that uses images for identity verification. Enable passwordless login, multi-factor authentication, seamless account recovery, and more, without relying on steganography, biometrics, additional software of special hardware.
Visual Safeguard
Securely share and protect your most sensitive digital information (aka secrets), using just an image.
Whether it’s master keys, passwords, corporate files, intellectual property, disaster recovery plans, confidential documents, or wallet seed phrases, our advanced technology ensures your data stays protected and accessible only to you and those you trust.
What can you do with Secrets Vault?
Login without passwords
• Use an image and PIN to access systems securely.
• No phones, codes, or hardware tokens required.
• Implement strong authentication in hybrid environments.
Stronger multi-factor authentication without passwords
• Use an image as a secure second authentication factor.
• Reduce fraud from phishing and account takeovers.

Automate account recovery
• Use an image to securely reset access or sign in on a new device.
• No extra software or security questions, just image-based validation.
• Reduce help desk load and speed up account recovery.
Protect your most sensitive info
• Secure your critical info with end-to-end encryption.
• Manage who can access it and when.
• Absolute privacy guaranteed by design.
Plan for your digital legacy
• Back up and store essential documents for inheritance planning.
• Grant access to your beneficiaries only when the time is right.
• Update your information when needed. Absolute privacy guaranteed.
How does Secrets Vault work?
Secrets Vault transforms any user-provided image into a strong cryptographic key, without altering the image itself.
Each image can serve as an authentication factor or encryption key, supporting a wide range of use cases, either standalone or combined with other factors like PINs, patterns, or devices.
Because the images remain unaltered, they can be safely stored or shared publicly, even on social media or messaging apps, without compromising security. The protocol is designed to tolerate common image modifications introduced by these platforms, enhancing both usability and resilience.
All cryptographic operations are performed locally on the user’s device, ensuring strong end-to-end security and complete privacy.
This innovative approach removes the burden of remembering complex passwords, delivering strong protection through advanced cryptography and image-based authentication.
Secrets Vault success stories
Simplifying wallet backups with Minima
Minima integrated Visual Safeguard to let users securely back up and restore wallets using visual encryption. Through a custom Minidapp, users create image-based backups, replacing passwords and paper seed phrases with a safer, user-friendly method.
Account recovery in the EU elections
During the 2024 European Elections, Verian deployed Visual Passcodes to secure access for 280 trained users reporting election results. Replacing SMS codes with personal images led to an 80% drop in helpdesk requests and noticeably faster authentication, with highly positive user feedback.
Data protection for legal confidentiality
A law firm adopted image-based encryption to protect and share sensitive documents. While standard tools remain in use, highly confidential files are now secured through a passwordless, privacy-first workflow, replacing email attachments and ensuring full control over access.
Combined passwordless and 2FA in action
Visual Safeguard uses Visual Passcodes as its main login method, combining image-based authentication with a PIN to secure both the user platform and admin back-office. Optional 2FA shows the flexibility and reliability of passwordless access in real-world use.
