Autotask is focused on meeting much broader file sync and share business needs for our customers. The Keybase service that you refer to is a very limited and isolated tool that addresses a very specific need delivering an encrypted file end-to-end. End-to-end encryption is more appropriately classified as Enterprise Key Management rather than an FSS solution. “Currently Autotask Workplace does not provide end-to-end encryption. Names to know include BoxCrytor, Cloud Fogger, nCrypted Cloud, Sookasa and Viivo.įrom Pat Burns, VP of product management: And yes, rival Dropbox has some encryption know-how as well.Īlso of note: Numerous encryption and security solutions now support file sync and sharing services. Box KeySafe eliminates that complexity for SMBs, Box claims.
The enterprise approach requires a tricky encryption key management system on Amazon Web Services. Meanwhile, Box has launched Box KeySafe - an encryption offering for SMB customers that don’t want to deal with the company’s more complex Enterprise Key Management option. That means it’s more suited to people who need a way to securely share files rather than those who simply want to free up space on their gadgets.” As The Next Web puts it, “You’ll need a PGP key to secure your identity and there’s no option to sync files continuously from your desktop or mobile devices. It sounds promising but it isn’t the same as traditional file sync and sharing. Plus, executives representing channel-centric offerings like Autotask File Sync and Sharing and eFolder Anchor have some strong opinions about proper security for VARs, MSPs and their SMB customers.Īmong the latest chatter: Message encryption service Keybase has launched a private beta of a new file sharing system that lets you upload files to the cloud and automatically encrypt as well as sign them with your PGP key, notes The Next Web. Some upstarts say they now offer better or more intuitive security than base consumer offerings like Box and Dropbox.
Within the very crowded market for cloud-based file sync and sharing services, the encryption buzz s growing louder.
