Who is WhiteStar Communications?
WhiteStar Communications was founded in 2019 and is headquartered in Durham, North Carolina, inside Research Triangle Park. With a leadership team that has decades of cumulative experience in tech leadership, entrepreneurship and a proven track record of delivering world-changing technological innovation at Fortune 500 companies, WhiteStar is perfectly poised to revolutionize the secure networking space.
The WhiteStar Network is a cloudless, secure hybrid peer to peer network that enables direct encrypted communications between devices. Our patented and patent-pending technologies leverage the exponential growth in mobile device capabilities and virtually unlimited 5G bandwidth to empower the creation of an entirely new generation of IoT products and services.
What We Do
We provide the underlying technology and that enables products and services to deliver cost effective, secure communications, ensure data privacy and preserves ownership of shared digital data for all technology verticals. Our technology transforms today’s internet from a very large network with billions of unknown connected endpoints to billions of networks with few known, trusted and secured endpoints.
Privacy
Through first party trust peer to peer endpoint connections, you always know who you are interacting with, all the time. Network connections must ‘opt-in’ to communications preventing unwanted SPAM or Phishing attempts. No metadata collection is possible because there is no intermediate cloud storage, there is no opportunity for 3rd party monetization of your personal property.
Security
All Content (Messages, Images, and Videos) is encrypted in flight and at rest on all connected devices. Encryption is accomplished by advanced patent-pending AI which is the strongest allowed by US law and results in the absolute minimum surface area for cybercrime ensuring your content is always safe.
Ownership
Using patented tag switching capabilities, you as a content provider, always retain full control of all of your shared content, meaning decisions on how content is shared, edited, deleted, or monetized is always in your control.
Why Choose WhiteStar?
We believe that an individual’s rights to freedom of expression, assembly as well as the right to (digital) privacy are fundamental to the human experience, and should be fastidiously protected against encroachment. We believe today’s internet providers and technologists have missed the opportunity to do the right thing for society so we stepped up and developed the WhiteStar Network Operating System and applications that set the standard for how to safeguard these rights.
To us, it’s not simply enough to say we respect your rights - we wanted to prove our conviction by creating a technology that will change the way internet communications will be delivered in the future. We have made our technology accessible through StarFury Restful APIs so that every application developer can leverage our technology to provide you with the same protections we provide our customers. At WhiteStar, we believe our technology is revolutionary and it will transform the way society digitally communicates whether it be through secure and private conversations or through the use of connected IoT devices. WhiteStar is your trusted partner.
