Providing security for the enterprise and users while not breaking the simplicity of Dropbox was the primary objective throughout the development of SafeMonk. Despite this, 91.7 percent of respondents use the service anyway.**
In a recent survey conducted by SafeNet Labs-the inventor of SafeMonk-more than 55 percent of respondents in charge of their company's security said the uncertainty around the Dropbox infrastructure, and susceptibility to attack, makes them the most hesitant to allow employees to use the service. No, really," said Rafael Guetta, Australian filmmaker. Also, while I have nothing to hide, I have peace of mind knowing that no one has access to my files stored in the SafeMonk Dropbox folder, unless I give it to them. With SafeMonk, I have been able to use Dropbox for work files without being concerned of them getting into the wrong hands. "I use Dropbox for work and personal use. The keys stored on SafeMonk servers are encrypted with users' private and local keys, so in the event of a system breach, or subpoena request, SafeMonk user keys are protected and the files are not viewable. In order to gain access to the files, the requester must go straight to the source, the user. What this means to the everyday user is that neither SafeMonk nor Dropbox are able to see the keys used to encrypt or decrypt the files within SafeMonk-no, really. SafeMonk does just that by developing host-proof technology, making files on Dropbox tapproof. "SafeMonk offers a powerful solution for Dropbox security without affecting its simplicity or functionality."Īccording to recent research on file synchronization and sharing from Gartner, Inc., "the best products also ensure that files leaving the sharing location are encrypted and only readable by those authorized to access the data."* We recognize that Dropbox's efficiency and usefulness will only make it more prevalent among the workforce, so making the service more secure through tapproofing is a better and more realistic option than discouraging or forbidding people from using it," said Chris Holland, Chief Monk, SafeMonk. "Our goal is to allow the CIOs of the world to say 'yes' to Dropbox for the enterprise.
SafeMonk also removes the concern of relying on cloud file-sharing services for privacy. SafeMonk was designed to be tapproof, giving Dropbox users and enterprises peace of mind, knowing their information is always protected from prying eyes. However, its popularity has made it a target for malicious hackers. More than 100 million people, including many corporate executives, leverage Dropbox because of its ease of use and convenience for file sharing, collaboration, and backup. SafeMonk is believed to be the only Dropbox security solution available that is tapproof, meaning no one has access to the files without your approval-not big brother or little sister, not Dropbox, or even SafeMonk. BELCAMP, Md., J/PRNewswire/ - SafeMonk today announced the public beta of its "tapproof" encryption solution designed specifically for users of the file-sharing service Dropbox™.
