Built for the future, not the past
Ilo is a research project to develop an API server to facilitate end-to-end encrypted messages. It utilises RSA cryptography, paired with modern technologies in a unique enterprise Single-Sign-On inspired architecture.
Available where you are
Ilo simply requires a client to be capable of parsing JSON and maintaining a Web-Socket connection. This lightweight design enables scaling to various devices.
Laptop. Check.
Smartphone. Check.
Smart Fridge. Why not?
Technology does not have barriers, we don't create them.
Technology is hard; It shouldn't be
Intentionally fault-tolerant and horizontally-scalable where essential, technology should be capable of handling periodic failures. Python is used to outsource low-overhead tasks. Development time is precious; let us optimise for that.
Python by default, low-level when we must.
Faces behind Ilo
Ilo was created from the belief technology should nurture individuals; Our security shouldn't become our insecurity.
