Cloud services provider Volterra has a new encryption tool to make file sharing via collaborative platforms more secure without using passwords or public-key cryptography.
VoltShare encrypts data and files locally to add an extra layer of security to collaboration and cloud storage platforms including Slack, Teams, and Dropbox.
The new service is available as downloadable software or an API and SDK. It works locally on a laptop or mobile device to encrypt data sent through email or collaboration platforms.
Ankur Singla, CEO of Volterra, said that there was a gap in the market for end-to-end encryption for file sharing services and collaboration platforms.
With this flavor of cloud service, the cloud provider is responsible for all aspects of cloud service architecture, delivery, operations, governance, and updates.
