What is Wormhole?

Wormhole is an open-source software project designed to transmit files up to 10 gigabytes across network boundaries without relying on permanent central storage infrastructure. It solves the critical security problem of intermediate data exposure during transmission over public networks. System administrators, software developers, and privacy-conscious teams use Wormhole to transfer proprietary assets, configuration files, and software binaries securely. The core functionality accepts any digital file as input, encrypts the raw byte stream on the sender machine using symmetric encryption, and generates a temporary, single-use access code or link. The recipient uses this link to retrieve and decrypt the file directly. Once the transfer finishes or the token expires, the routing instructions self-destruct, leaving zero payload data on transit nodes.
