File sharing, sync and cloud storage service provider
iSync.io is now offering HIPAA compliant services which it is promoting as an alternative to Dropbox and Google Docs. Established in 2006, the Cary, North Carolina-based company is a branch of Inftek Inc. and specializes in Kerio Connect email and business collaboration hosting solutions.
iSync.io offers a file sharing, sync and cloud storage tool that has a firm focus on security. It is of particular interest to users that do not want to use FTP or VPN options for security reasons. iSync.io offers 256 bit AES "military grade" encryption which encrypts files when data is "in-transit". The system is accessible via Mac and Windows PCs and iOS, Android, and Windows mobile devices. It offers a "robust administrative console" which enables users to restore data and "remote wipe" when equipment is lost or stolen. iSync.io plans start at $8 per user per month and a free trial is available at the company's website.
“Companies need simplicity so that their tools can easily be deployed and adopted. They also need security and privacy," explained Mike Schaffner of InfTek. "HIPAA compliance is a hot topic issue with many of our clients that use us for email encryption and archiving and iSync.io solves this concern for them when it comes to sharing and sync’ing files across devices. iSync.io provides fine-tooth administrative total control via an intuitive Admin Control Panel to manage users, devices, and to control who employees are sharing data with."
