New app for world’s most popular tablet devices and smartphones makes Bring Your Own Device policies more viable

 Hamburg – April 3rd 2012 – TeamDrive 3.0 for iOS has launched and is now in the App Store, delivering truly secure and private access to cloud data for iPhone and iPadbusiness users.  Availability of the iOS version of the world’s only cloud synchronization tool with a  eases the task of IT directors trying to balance the use of mobile devices with the collaboration benefits of cloud storage, while also maintaining the absolute security of data. The option of running a TeamDriveserver within a company’s own datacenter as well as on public and private cloud makes it a highly attractive enterprise ready approach.

Volker Oboda, CEO of enterprise cloud synchronization provider , said, “The iPad and iPhone are hugely popular choices for enterprise users, especially under Bring Your Own Device policies. Yet, until today, no cloud synchronization tool was available to provide genuine, enterprise-grade security for those devices.  Today’s announcement makes BYOD policies far easier for IT directors to propose, implement and manage without worrying about the loss or compromise of confidential data or intellectual property when employees access files ‘on the go’ when the devices go AWOL.”

TeamDrive’s  cloud file-sharing approach means that all data are encrypted on the originating device before upload, preventing meaningful unauthorised interception.  RSA-2048 encryption is used on invitations to share AES-256 encrypted files on any TeamDrive Space.  The sum of its security features ensures thatTeamDrive is Safe Harbor-compliant.

To accommodate the needs of every business, especially those concerned about the implications of keeping intellectual property on cloud storage,  TeamDrive may be used with any choice of server: private cloud, public cloud, TeamDrive cloud or on-site. This means that, instead of being pushed into a public cloud, an enterprise may useTeamDrive to operate its own private file-sharing service. The contents remain entirely under company control, on company-owned and company-managed servers.

TeamDrive 3.0 was launched on March 6^th 2012 with a promise to release its iOS and Android apps imminently.  TeamDrive’s Android app will be announced shortly, with support for Blackberry and Windows Mobile Phones following in the summer.
