Features

• S3-Compatible API - Drop-in replacement for AWS S3
• Post-Quantum Security - Kyber-768 and Dilithium-3 encryption
• Zero Egress (AU) - No charges for AU-based data transfer
• 100% Sovereign - Data never leaves Tasmania

Endpoint

https://s3.tas-1.tasmanian.cloud

Authentication

Configure your S3 client:

export S3_ENDPOINT="https://s3.tas-1.tasmanian.cloud"
export S3_ACCESS_KEY="your-access-key"
export S3_SECRET_KEY="your-secret-key"

Quick Start

Creating Buckets

Create a new bucket:

rc mb s3://my-bucket

Uploading Files

Upload a single file:

rc cp file.txt s3://my-bucket/

For large files (recommended for files >100MB):

rc cp large-file.zip s3://my-bucket/

Sync an entire directory:

rc sync ./data s3://my-bucket/data/

Downloading Files

Download a single file:

rc cp s3://my-bucket/file.txt ./

Sync an entire bucket:

rc sync s3://my-bucket/ ./backup/

Bucket Configuration

Versioning

Enable versioning on a bucket:

rc version enable s3://my-bucket

Lifecycle Policies

Apply lifecycle rules for automatic tiering:

rc ilm import s3://my-bucket lifecycle.json

Example lifecycle policy:

{
  "Rules": [
    {
      "ID": "MoveToCold",
      "Status": "Enabled",
      "Filter": { "Prefix": "logs/" },
      "Transitions": [
        {
          "Days": 30,
          "StorageClass": "COLD"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Access Control

Set bucket policy:

rc policy set s3://my-bucket policy.json

Security

Server-Side Encryption

All data is encrypted by default with post-quantum cryptography:

• Kyber-768 - Key encapsulation
• Dilithium-3 - Digital signatures
• AES-256-GCM - Data encryption

Client-Side Encryption

For additional security, encrypt data before upload:

from cryptography.fernet import Fernet

key = Fernet.generate_key()
cipher = Fernet(key)
encrypted = cipher.encrypt(b'sensitive data')
# Upload encrypted data
