# Overview of Blob Storage

Blob Storage is a feature of the BountyHub platform that allows users to store and manage binary large objects (blobs) such as images, videos, documents, payloads, configuration files, and other types of unstructured data. It provides a scalable and secure way to handle large files that are essential for security testing activities.

# Key Features

  • Scalability: Blob Storage is designed to handle large volumes of data, making it suitable for storing extensive payloads and files used in security testing.
  • Secure Access: Users can control access to their blobs through authentication and authorization mechanisms, ensuring that sensitive data is protected.
  • Easy Integration: Blob Storage can be easily integrated with other BountyHub features, allowing users to seamlessly manage their files alongside their security testing activities.
  • Efficient Management: Users can organize their blobs in folders, making it easier to manage and retrieve files intuitively.

Let's dive deeper into the Blob Storage feature.

# How it Works

Blob Storage allows users to upload, store, and manage large files that are essential for their security testing activities. Users can create folders to organize their blobs, making it easier to locate and manage files.

When a user uploads a blob, it is stored securely in the Blob Storage system. Users can then access their blobs through the BountyHub platform, where they can view, download, or delete files as needed.

You don't need to sign up to other services to use S3-like blob storage. It is fully integrated into the BountyHub platform.

# Managing Blobs

You can use BH CLI, authorized using Personal Access Tokens, to upload and manage your blobs.

Blobs are not designed to be served without authentication. If you need to serve files publicly, consider using the Directory Server feature.
