Self-hosting

Note

Requirements: 1 vCPU, 1GB RAM, 16GB disk, Docker ≥ 20.10, 64-bit Linux

AliasVault can be self-hosted on your own servers using two different installation methods. Both use Docker, but they differ in how much is automated versus how much you manage yourself.

• Option 1: Install Script - Managed solution with automatic SSL (recommended for VPS/cloud)

• Option 2: Docker Compose - Single container with manual setup for use with existing SSL infrastructure (NAS, homelab)

Quick Start (Install Script)

# Download and run install script
curl -L -o install.sh https://github.com/aliasvault/aliasvault/releases/latest/download/install.sh

# Make install script executable and run it. This will create the .env file, pull the Docker images, and start the AliasVault containers.
chmod +x install.sh

./install.sh install

For other installation methods and more detailed steps, please read the full installation guide in the official docs.

Security Architecture

AliasVault takes security seriously and implements various measures to protect your data:

• All sensitive user data is encrypted end-to-end using industry-standard encryption algorithms. This includes the complete vault contents and all received emails.
• Your master password never leaves your device.
• Zero-knowledge architecture ensures the server never has access to your unencrypted data

For detailed information about our encryption implementation and security architecture, see the following documents:

• SECURITY.md
• Security Architecture Diagram
