Accellion is pleased to announce the release of its new mobile app. While a new mobile app may not sound like the most exciting news, it’s what the mobile app does that’s truly exciting.
Before we get into that, let’s look at a day in the life of a senior executive, say a VP, President, or C-level executive. They’re seldom at their desks, responding to every email as it comes in. Instead, they’re in countless meetings, taking calls in the car, traveling all over the world visiting facilities, talking to customers or partners, and closing business. Work doesn’t wait for them to get back into the office. As a result, they need real-time access to the most current data in order to make important decisions: Do we accept the customer’s terms? Is this presentation ready for the board of directors meeting? Do we hire this candidate? Does this discount cut too deep? The list of critical business decisions goes on and on.
This work is typically done away from the office, on a smartphone or tablet. Once again, the information these senior executives need to review and respond to must be easily accessible, whether it’s on a plane, at a restaurant or in a hotel room. And because the information is more often than not sensitive in nature, senior executives need to have the confidence they can download it and share it without fear of the data being compromised, whether it’s a leak, breach, or malware infection. Is this document from a customer sent via Dropbox safe to open? Has the data I’ve received and am about to forward met our internal DLP requirements? If I lose my phone, will someone be able to view this sales forecast?
Senior executives now have a single solution that addresses the dual requirement of productivity and security: Accellion’s new kiteworks mobile app. This is the app for senior executives and business professionals who need to access and share content efficiently and securely while working outside of the office. All of the capabilities senior executives have grown accustomed to when using Accellion’s secure file sharing platform at their desk are now available in the kiteworks mobile app. This includes:
- Unified access to kiteworks-connected ECMs like SharePoint and Documentum, as well as cloud-based repositories like Dropbox, OneDrive for Business and Box
- Automatic DLP scans on every file download
- Automatic AV and ATP scans on every file upload
- Encryption of content in transit and at rest; you own the keys
- Granular policy controls and logging of all file activity enable compliance with HIPAA, GDPR, SOX, and more
- Certified compliance with FIPS 140-2 and FedRAMP-Authorized
Because the Accellion kiteworks mobile app lets you access, edit and share sensitive content on the road securely and in compliance, you don’t have to worry about being unproductive while you’re out of the office. On the contrary, Accellion’s mobile app makes it easy to get work done wherever you may be.
Here’s what’s new:
- Fast Navigation and File access – find content faster, navigate folders more efficiently, and load, open and explore files easily with Home as your personal space
- LDAP support for emails – share information easily with people in your org
- MS Office Integration– iOS WOPI integration for full compatibility and functionality
- Express secure camera – take a picture and upload it without saving it to the camera roll
