Security Concerns

Deeper Connect devices offer a truly decentralized private network with no centralized servers keeping logs. The information can only be accessed by users through AtomOS with their passwords. Even if the device is stolen physically, no one will be able to access it without the password.
Deeper Connect Mini has a 7-layer firewall and is capable of deep packet inspections. Malicious actors on the network will be stopped by the distributed firewall. This is actually a unique advantage of our decentralized network compared to others. We believe security to be an indispensable prerequisite to a sharing network.
If such cases do occur there are a couple of ways the Deeper devices can help rid you of liability. The port used for sharing connections and the port used for your personal connection are separate and can be distinguished. The devices keep internal logs to show that you were not the one accessing the content and in an upcoming update these logs will be easier to access and searchable. Additionally, further fine tuned controls will be coming to allow users more control over what content can pass through their device, even more than what is currently available.
However, for those who want further control there are options to refuse certain protocols or even disable bandwidth sharing entirely. These controls can be found on the Sharing Config page:
Users have the option to share their bandwidth or not. Deeper Connect devices can recognize most internet protocols; users can choose to deny the dangerous ones. The devices can distinguish user's own connections and sharing connections. If you didn't do something deemed illegal, the device can prove it.
Users have the option to reject dangerous connections such as torrents. Deeper devices use a transparent mode, it only accepts connections from other Deeper Connect devices, so there should not be any DDOS concerns.
Whether you switch off your bandwidth sharing or not, your AtomOS will automatically upgrade to a new version whenever it’s available for free.
Our product is very safe and secure, but nobody has the ultimate answer to 100% security. We believe security is a dynamic process that has to be continuously upgraded to keep up with the new challenges.
Users can disable some P2P protocols to prevent other nodes from using its bandwidth to download unauthorized content. We use source portals and deep packet inspection to distinguish different types of traffic.
You cannot identify other people's logs. You can only access yours. The network is not centralized. Your device can prove that it wasn't you, but it cannot reveal who made it, as the other traffic is insulated and not accessible to other Deeper Connect users.

Deeper Network provides some cloud DPN nodes, which allow all kinds of traffic, and you will be able to torrent through the cloud nodes.
Each user that shares bandwidth has the option to block torrents since they may be illegal in some countries. Other users may allow it if they are comfortable, therefore, there are some nodes that will allow torrent traffic.
It is recommended to still use anti-virus software. Deeper Connect is not an anti-virus product.
