BY INDUSTRY
A flexible workforce relies on a secure way to get work done with clients and co-workers no matter the location or device. But seamless, secure access is often complicated by fragmented applications and scattered data storage. You need an agile content collaboration solution with enterprise-grade security controls that automates workflows and integrates with existing systems. The result is a unified, secure solution that removes friction and keeps the focus where it should be–on your customers.
Executive summary
When companies don’t provide a file sync and sharing service, employees often use their own personal tools. IT has no control over how data is being stored or shared, and may not be aware of compromised data until it’s too late. This can be even more risky when employees use their own tools to share files with third parties.
An EFSS service combines the convenience and simplicity of a personal file-sharing service with enterprise-oriented features to boost productivity for users—and to increase security, flexibility, and control for IT. Common services include:
EFSS solutions offer many advantages, including:
Anywhere access: People are no longer limited to a single corporate-owned device or office location to get work done. Today’s increasingly mobile workforce expects to be able to access what they need, from any device or location, with a consumer-like experience. EFSS services enable mobile work styles by allowing users to sync files across all their devices and easily access what they need from anywhere.
Data loss prevention and disaster recovery: When data is centrally stored and managed with an EFSS service, your data is better protected from data leakage, whether from a cybersecurity attack, a lost or stolen device, or employee error. EFSS services make it easy to keep data backed up and secure, and to plan for disaster recovery.
Document workflows and collaboration: More EFSS services are evolving to include workflow and content collaboration capabilities, such as document management to ensure the safe exchange of internal and external-facing documents—contracts, proposals, training tools, onboarding paperwork, performance reviews, marketing collateral, sales presentations, product information, and more. Other common features include:
Citrix work solutions make it easy for organizations of all sizes to provide anywhere, any device access to documents, no matter where they’re stored. You can simplify workflows, protect against cybersecurity threats, and streamline collaboration—all in one solution.
