Bitglass Introduces Privacy-Centric Platform
FREMONT, CA: As enterprises are adopting cloud applications, the IT department is under tremendous pressure to ensure the security of the corporate data which is residing and travelling on third-party servers and networks to employee owned devices. It is a tough task at hand which is over come by the product and services offered by the year old startup company, Bitglass, which has a funding to the tune of $10 million from New Enterprise Associates and Norwest Venture Partners, reports Maria Deutscher for SiliconAngle.
The company says that its product can be setup easily across an organization without installing any special software on employee devices, changing firewall policies or imposing restrictions on how cloud applications are accessed. Users do not have to worry about prying administrators and can use the same apps personally and professionally. The features of the package include reverse proxy which watermarks, for easy tracking, files which were downloaded; business information can be erased from a device in case of theft or loss and it also includes access controls and a single sign-on mechanism, which can be swapped with an existing identity management solution.
According to Nat Kausik, CoFounder and CEO, Bitglass, “We utilize cloud apps and mobile devices in our personal lives because they are easy to use, anytime, anywhere. Naturally, we also want to use this technology in the workplace. Bitglass enables IT to move forward with these technologies, providing security for the organization and a frictionless experience for employees.”
