Amber offers security and convenience without compromising digital data, privacy or peace of mind. "Your personal data and memories are just that - yours. Why would you want to give complete strangers or cloud providers access to your data?" said Dr. Pantas Sutardja, founder & CEO, Latticework, Inc. "Amber makes storage personal, enabling you to protect, control and secure your digital life, while seamlessly allowing you to relive and share life's memories with only the people you choose."

Existing cloud solutions offer convenience in data access, but they come with potential risks to user privacy. "We realized that people love the convenience, but they are less aware of the risk of massive hacks and loss of data privacy, as witnessed in recent high-profile abuse cases," noted Dr. Sutardja. Amber was created on the premise of leveraging minimum trust elements from the public cloud by designing its own central and proprietary cloudservice called LatticeNest, to only provide user identity management and routing services. This allows users to manage access and store data locally while mitigating any compromise in privacy or control from existing public cloud only services. "We've created the world's first hybrid cloud platform for consumers by artfully integrating Amber with LatticeNest for a seamless and unified user experience," added Dr. Sutardja.
