File sharing for education
Is your institution’s file access secure?
Many students and faculty within educational institutions around the world are mistakenly taking advantage of the ease of storing and syncing their data seamlessly in the cloud. But this simple technology creates a huge security issue for IT administrators, namely, how do they keep that data secure when it’s hosted on someone else’s server or downloaded to a local device, literally putting it “out in the wild”?
MyWorkDrive provides a secure file access solution for educational institutions of any size, enabling students and faculty to access their files on any device through browser, desktop, or mobile clients. Administrators control which access methods are available. There's no need to create security risks by syncing or migrating files to the cloud—MyWorkDrive provides direct access to files in existing network file shares. Enhanced security features include data leak preventiontwo-factor authentication, and SAML Shibboleth authentication modules. Our "no file left behind" strategy ensures files cannot be accessed on unattended, lost, or stolen devices.
