VPDisk Pro

Share Windows Mapped Drives Securely Over The Internet

The benefits of using storage on servers include regular backups, easy sharing of data, and easy capacity upgrades. Move this concept from your LAN to the Internet and you not only have the benefits listed above, you can also allow low cost storage sharing between different geographic locations and outsourcing of storage services. In effect, the Internet becomes a SAN with vast geographic reach.

To utilize these features, you must have security and privacy on these Internet based storage services. VPNs are utilized to encrypt the traffic. However, once data is on the storage, it is open to attacks by any intruder with superuser rights. VPDisk Pro will work with any VPN and encrypt all files transparently. Your online storage admin can continue to provide backup and other services while not being able to view the data. This protects privacy and provides convenience.

VPDisk Pro features industry standard ciphers--DES, 3DES, BlowFish, RC4 and AES. File sharing is through SMB/CIFS so all flavors of Windows are supported. OmniSecure can assist you in securing your Web, E-Mail and file access through SSL if you prefer not to deploy VPN. OmniSecure can also assist ASPs, SSPs and ISPs in deploying Internet attached services with encryption capabilities.
