TeamDrive in Partnership With SmartOffice …
For secure office productivity solution
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on May 2, 2013 at 1:52 pm
Enterprise cloud provider TeamDrive Systems is integrating document viewing and editing
tools from SmartOffice Technologies, a subsidiary of Picsel International Ltd, to create a secure office productivity solution called TeamDrive Secure Office.
Scheduled for release this spring, the technology addresses the corporate and government need
for complete, end-to-end encryption when sharing data between multiple users
and mobile devices.
With TeamDrive Secure Office, shared documents will
never leave the secure environment created by TeamDrive and SmartOffice. Even
when workers access and send files on their smartphones, TeamDrive and
SmartOffice provide complete end-to-end encryption so the data are never left
unsecured. By contrast, with other cloud-based solutions, there are often times
when data are transmitted without encryption. For example, the application
might send unencrypted data to the cloud provider, and the cloud provider might
send unencrypted data to a mobile device.
TeamDrive is currently in the process of building
secure document viewing and editing tools by integrating Secure Office Software
Development Kit (SDK), part of the SmartOffice for Enterprise offering, into
TeamDrive’s encrypted cloud synchronization solutions for iPhones, iPads and
Android smartphones.
Volker Oboda, cofounder and CEO of TeamDrive, commented: "TeamDrive Secure Office is proof of our
dedication to providing next-generation security to the cyber world. Complying
with European data protection directives is important to our customers, which
include government clients as well as major enterprises. Secure Office SDK aids
in our enterprise mobility solutions’ ability to comply with these directives."
TeamDrive’s users will benefit from a range of features available via the
SmartOffice APIs, which include: user level policy control, multiple OS and
multiple device form factor support, rich viewing and editing functionality,
broad file format support including Word, PowerPoint, Excel and PDF, and fluid
document manipulation with responsive panning and zooming. In addition to a suite of functionality, users will have access to secure
printing from wireless devices, export from Office files to Adobe PDF and add
annotations to PDF documents.
Imran Khand, CEO SmartOffice Technologies, said:
"We are delighted to be partnering
with an award-winning European organization that is equally committed to secure
enterprise solutions. SmartOffice’s secure mobile document workflow fits
hand-in-hand with TeamDrive’s encrypted, enterprise-grade cloud syncing technology.
I look forward to a successful partnership with TeamDrive throughout 2013 and
beyond."
A technology’s ability to prevent the leakage of
sensitive data via mobile devices is of value. Security of corporate data
is paramount, and the rapid adoption of BYOD policies makes protecting
intellectual property a challenge for any organization. To address these
challenges, enterprises are turning to secure cloud solutions like
TeamDrive.
TeamDrive Secure Office enhances office productivity
and enables the mobile workforce while preventing data leakage from mobile
devices. It is especially valuable for large enterprises, government bodies,
and other organizations with extremely sensitive data.
