Private communication without the public noise.

Three reasons are enough to understand the idea. The technical details stay below when you need them.

01

Private by invitation

You decide who joins. There is no public people or community directory in the current beta.

02

Everything in one place

Messages, communities, Talk, files and screen sharing live under one account.

03

Encrypted before upload

Supported rooms protect messages and attachments on the device before the server receives them.

Private communication without hiding the controls.

VaultSec Desktop keeps messages, communities, calls, files, automation and administration in one client. Status labels below distinguish what is live, beta, client-ready or planned.

Grouped by the job, labelled by its real status.

A feature card states what it does, whether it is available today and the boundary users should know before relying on it.

Messages & filesLive

Encrypted conversations

Direct rooms, community channels, replies, reactions, read state and deliberately retained local history.

The client requires an encrypted room before it sends message content.
Messages & filesLive

Protected attachments

Images, voice notes, documents, archives and executable file types can be transferred without automatic execution.

RAR, ZIP, PY and EXE files remain a user-controlled download; VaultSec never opens them automatically.
CommunitiesLive

Channels, categories and roles

Invitation-gated communities with sortable categories, text and Talk channels, role permissions and private administration areas.

The free plan supports up to 5 owned communities.
CommunitiesLive

Role-protected community management

Sensitive community controls stay behind verified elevated roles, MFA and single-use launch links.

Elevated permission is rechecked whenever the protected management area opens.
Talk & sharingClient ready

Voice, video and screen sharing

Private Talk rooms, camera, relay-only screen sharing and explicit microphone, display and quality controls.

Media security is documented separately from Matrix message encryption.
Talk & sharingBeta

Windows system audio

A guided Windows 10/11 flow captures device audio while avoiding the selected Talk output device to prevent duplicate voices.

Available devices and reliable voice exclusion depend on the Windows audio layout.
AutomationLive

Bot Forge

Ready templates and bounded custom rules for approved triggers and actions; descriptions are never executed as code.

Bot slots depend on plan and community level.
AutomationLive

Private Ticket Desk

Support and purchase forms create private ticket channels, admin chat and ticket logs with creator-specific visibility.

Ticket categories and staff access are created from verified roles.
AutomationLive

Scoped webhooks

Discord-style endpoints with one-time credentials, channel scope, rotation and immediate revocation.

External relays do not receive room keys or decrypted history.
Identity & releaseLive

Profiles, presence and devices

Shared identity, profile media, status, device approval and account security controls across private spaces.

A compromised participant device can expose what that participant can see.
Identity & releaseLive

Signed update flow

The updater verifies the fixed-purpose release manifest, shows visible progress and restarts into the confirmed build.

Only the expected VaultSec release path is accepted.
Identity & releaseBeta

Vanity joining

Community-controlled addresses open the installed app without revealing community details on the public page.

A link never replaces permission, sign-in or membership approval.

Live beta does not mean every surface is finished.

The Windows open beta is available now. Download freely and create an account in the app. Registration includes a background bot check and limits against automated abuse.

This is an early beta. Report problems through Support; real-world media tests and a complete real-payment check are still open.

The beta is open. Your space is private.

The Desktop core costs €0. Optional memberships raise limits; a community upgrade applies to one selected community. You do not need an upgrade to encrypt messages.

Encryption is one control, not a magic shield.

The useful security model states what is protected, which metadata remains and where participant devices or granted integrations become the boundary.

01

Message content

Encrypted in supported Matrix rooms before it leaves a participant device.

02

Attachments

Protected before upload; executable files are never started automatically.

03

Metadata

Routing, membership, timing and room-name metadata still exist where the service needs them.

04

Calls and screen sharing

Use a separate media path; do not assume the message-encryption statement describes every media packet.

05

Participant devices

Screenshots, exports, malware or an unlocked device can expose content already available to that participant.

06

Bots and webhooks

Receive only granted events and channels; external relays never receive room keys or decrypted history.

07

Updates

The application verifies the VaultSec release manifest before applying an update.

VaultSec vs Discord

Open the full comparison →

Important details without another page.

Can I use VaultSec Desktop for free?

Yes. The core Desktop plan is €0 and open registration is available now. Create your account in the installed app.

Does the server see my message content?

Supported Matrix rooms require encryption before sending. The service still processes required routing, membership and timing metadata.

Can I send archives or executable files?

Yes, including formats such as RAR, ZIP, PY and EXE. They are never opened automatically; the recipient explicitly chooses where to save them.

Are Discord voice calls encrypted?

Discord states that voice, video and Go Live are end-to-end encrypted by default as of March 2026, with Stage channels as the stated exception. The comparison above reflects that current official claim.
