Secure cloud framework
Project description
Parsec
Homepage: https://parsec.cloud
Documentation: https://parsec-cloud.readthedocs.org.
Parsec is a free software (AGPL v3) aiming at easily share your work and data in the cloud in total privacy thanks to cryptographic security.
Key features:
Works as a virtual drive on you computer. You can access and modify all the data stored in Parsec with your regular softwares just like you would on your local hard-drive.
Never lose any data. Synchronization with the remote server never destroy any data, hence you can browse data history and recover from any point in time.
Client-side cryptographic security. Data and metadata are only visible by you and the ones you choose to share with.
Cryptographic signature. Each modification is signed by it author making trivial to identify modifications.
Cloud provider agnostic. Server provides connectors for S3 and swift object storage.
Simplified enrollment. New user enrollment is simple as sharing a link and a token code.
Installation methods
Windows installer
Windows installers are available at https://github.com/Scille/parsec-cloud/releases/latest
Linux Snap
Available for Linux through Snapcraft at https://snapcraft.io/parsec
Python PIP
Parsec is also available directly through PIP for both Linux and Windows with Python > 3.6 with the command: pip install parsec-cloud (or, if you need to specify Python 3 pip version, pip3 install parsec-cloud)
History
Parsec v1.15.0 (2020-08-29)
Features
Updated the logos (#1316)
Add a warning when chosing user role during the greet process (#1352)
Add support for confined (i.e temporary) files and directories. In this context, confined means files that are not meant to be synchronized with other clients (#990)
Moved user info to the top right (#1153)
Explain password and confirmation mismatch (#1265)
Notify user when the current in used organization has expired (#1206)
Updated workspace sharing to be easier to use (#1138)
New organization creation process (#1257)
Sexier login screen (#1130)
Allows creating an organization on a custom metadata server (#1390)
Add one custom rsync to parsec (#953)
GUI allows organization creation on a custom backend (#1133)
Bugfixes

Fix inconsistence backend replies from an cancelled invite command (#1365)
Added workspace name in error message when removed from a workspace (#1385)
Miscellaneous internal changes
Devices keys filenames are no longer meaningful. Device key files used to be stored in a directory named after the device slug in a file also named after the same device slug. As a result, the device path used to be very long (about 200 characters). Device key files are now stored directly in the devices directory using the device slughash and the .keys extension. The path is now much shorter (#1366)
In order to simplify url validation in the GUI, parsec:// url without hostname part are now considered invalid instead of defaulting to localhost. (#1402)
Inviting an user to join organization now display a confirmation pop-up. (#1346)
Invited users is now displayed before the organization users (#1351)
The winfsp and fuse mountpoints now always report 0 MB used over a 1 TB capacity. Those values are arbitrary but useful to the operating system, especially OSX. (#1401)
