-[Insert the abstract to your work here]
+ File storage providers on the Internet have made it non-trivial for
+ individuals to store personal files on the file storage provider's
+ computers. After Mr. Snowden disclosed information about the
+ National Security Agency' (NSA) surveillance programs that allowed
+ the NSA to access information stored on file storage provider'
+ computers, online file storage became a non-solution for storing
+ personal files for everyone who detested the possibility of somebody
+ else being able to access their personal files. In the past, there
+ have been separate efforts to come with a solution to allow
+ individuals to use storage space provided by file storage providers
+ in a way that it made it impossible for file storage providers and
+ to access the files. combox is one such effort. It allows an
+ individual to store personal files in the ``combox directory'' on
+ all her computers (running GNU/Linux or OS X) and the combox program
+ takes the files, splits and encrypts them and spreads them across
+ file storage providers' directories. Therefore, when an individual
+ uses storage space provided by file storage providers through
+ combox, each file storage provider gets only a part of the file in
+ an encrypted form.
