To work effectively, most companies across different sectors need to collaborate and share data, but the available options are not always secure. Sharing confidential information via email or pluggable devices is not always ideal as these methods can make data difficult to control access to and protect.
While cloud storage and share companies such as Dropbox and Sharefile provide a useful solution for storing data, many organisations find it difficult to manage encryption keys for their files, as neither the uploaded files nor the security options are in their control.
Companies are also facing new challenges from the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which must be accounted for when collaborating ensuring information is always secure.
