Cloud Storage with Security & Privacy
Business Class Security, Data Protection, and Redundancy
From small businesses to large enterprises, data security is crucial to business operations. Egnyte provides enterprise-class security on multiple levels, providing robust management of user access permissions, SSL encryption of data transmission, and SAS 70 compliance of data centers. Regulatory compliance with HIPAA and FINRA guidelines provide assurance to financial services and health care organizations. Adherence to the EU Safe Harbor Framework enables Egnyte to address online storage needs of international customers. With Egnyte, businesses have complete control and protection of their data.
Total Access Control
IT administrators know that the first line of defense for data security is user authentication. Egnyte enables user authentication and permission enforcement at every access point, ensuring that only users with the right credentials can access the account. For organizations with Single Sign-on (SSO) authentication, Egnyte integrates with VMware Horizon, OneLogin, Citrix CloudGateway and others. SAML 2.0 compliance enables integration with SSO solutions that utilize this standard. Egnyte also enables directory service integration with Active Directory and LDAP for centralized authentication management behind the firewall.
Data Transfer Security
All communications with Egnyte Cloud File Server, including continuous file backup and access via the web browser or via desktop, is encrypted using 256-bit AES encryption over SSL. This ensures that no "sniffers" can be deployed on the Internet traffic between you and Cloud File Server. Unlike email-based communication, most of which flows unprotected over the Internet, your communication with the online file server is completely protected. Egnyte also integrates with user-end encryption services to provide complete end-to-end data encryption. Customers can define and manage their own encryption keys, enabling complete control over files from anywhere.
Physical Security & Disaster Recovery
Egnyte servers are hosted at Type II, SAS 70 compliant collocation facilities that feature 24-hour manned security, biometric access control, video surveillance and physical locks. These data centers are located on the east and west coasts of the United States and in Western Europe. Egnyte ensures that all your data is secure by having redundant independent storage units using RAID. Redundant real-time data mirrors guarantee 99.97% up time. Data is stored safely in the cloud file server.
Disaster Preparedness
HybridCloud is a key part of any disaster preparedness plan, dramatically increasing chances of business continuity and decreasing losses due to corrupted or missing data and low worker productivity. Using Egnyte continuous file synchronization with local storage, such as PC hard drives, NAS devices and virtual appliances, ensures your files are automatically replicated in the cloud. If a PC or storage device is damaged or lost, files are accessible through a web browser.
Network Security
Best-of-class firewall and router technology, strong SSL encryption and a Network Intrusion Detection System that monitors and proactively blocks worms, hackers, and any other undesirables protect our network.
Datasafe Guarantee
Egnyte provides an industry-leading detailed Service Level Agreement (see our Terms of Service), guaranteeing recovery of your data in the event that Egnyte's ability to operate as a business is compromised.
