Why can I not share a resource as an admin?

Because you do not have the resource key for that specific resource. Unless you have the right resource key specifically shared with you by the file's creator, you will not be able to access it.

Additionally, you might have your "sharing & receiving files" permission deactivated.

info

Every resource is protected by its own key that cannot be brute forced in any way, shape, or form. The amount of time it would take to hack such a key is the universe's age using all computational power available worldwide.

Permissions
  • As an admin, you can destroy keys, delete keys or re-shuffle who is the owner of a resource.
  • However, as an admin, you cannot allow another person to access the resource because you cannot have access to the resource.
note
  • Traditional solutions make key exchanges in the servers, which is a narrow-minded approach from a security perspective; if an attacker takes down the server, all the encrypted files become unencrypted and stolen.
  • In ticrypt, the server never sees what the resource key looks like. The exchange happens on the browser in 0.1 milliseconds.
