Question 1

Can Nawa restore files from Glacier and Deep Archive?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Right-click any object, selection or folder, pick a retrieval tier (Expedited, Standard or Bulk), and Nawa shows the estimated cost before it starts. You get a notification and a transfer-log entry when the objects are downloadable.

Question 2

How does Object Lock protect against ransomware?

Accepted Answer

With Object Lock in Compliance mode, a locked version cannot be deleted or overwritten by anyone, including the account root, until its retention date. Nawa sets retention, legal hold and a bucket default from one sheet.

Question 3

Where are my credentials stored?

Accepted Answer

In the macOS Keychain, encrypted by the system. Nawa never sends keys anywhere except directly to the endpoint you configure, over HTTPS.

Anything that speaks the S3 API with signature v4: Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, MinIO, Wasabi, DigitalOcean Spaces, Hetzner, Ceph and more. Custom endpoints and path-style addressing are supported.
