Why Respawn uses the Jackal Protocol for next generation cyber resilience.
When your business depends on fast, failproof recovery, you cannot afford to trust the same cloud your production systems run on. Respawn solves this by backing up every file to Jackal Protocol, a decentralized storage network built for cyber resilience. It is not just a place to store data. It is a verification engine that proves your data is there, intact, and untouchable.

A Storage Network With No Blind Spots
Jackal is a decentralized, self-custodial data layer secured by blockchain. When Respawn stores your backups to Jackal, those files are encrypted, split into pieces, and stored across a global mesh of nodes. Every file is triple-redundant by default, and Jackal’s blockchain keeps constant watch over them. If a copy ever disappears, the network heals itself automatically.
All of this happens onchain. The network runs permissionlessly, meaning there is no central party who can lose your data, lock your access, or change the rules. What is written stays written. And what is stored stays provable.
Blockchain Verification, Without the Blockchain Headache
Respawn plugs directly into Jackal’s smart storage infrastructure. You do not need to learn wallets, transactions, or anything blockchain related. Respawn handles the complexity and gives you a simple interface to configure, monitor, and recover your data, while the Jackal Protocol quietly runs in the background, enforcing zero-trust storage with built-in audit logs and tamper resistance.
Every time a backup runs, the hash of that file is committed to the Jackal chain using its Proof-of-Persistence mechanism. This allows Respawn to verify that the data is not only present but exactly correct. You do not need to redownload your backups to know they are good. Respawn asks the network for proof and the network delivers it.
Recovery That Cannot Be Held Hostage
When ransomware hits, the most common target is the backup itself. Attackers look for local volumes, S3 buckets, or even poorly configured "air-gapped" appliances. But Jackal’s infrastructure is fully remote, globally distributed, and sealed by cryptography.
Even if your production cloud is compromised, your backups remain on a separate network entirely. No credentials to steal. No admin panels to abuse. Just files waiting to be rehydrated on demand. And because Jackal allows streaming from multiple nodes in parallel, Respawn can saturate your recovery bandwidth and bring systems back online faster than legacy systems.
Why Respawn Chose Jackal
Jackal is not just a place to put data. It is a protocol-level guarantee of data integrity, availability, and ownership. That is why Respawn chose it. When disaster strikes, you do not want faith. You want receipts.
Respawn gives you recovery that is provable, fast, and built on a data layer that does not blink. It is cyber resilience, enforced by math, not middleware.
