Tiny independent London based company, NOS Microsystems has announced innovative new features to its all-in-one privacy app, get2Clouds® that lets users encrypt the data on their network attached storage (NAS) and use it to transfer via secure file transfer protocol (SFTP). This offers small businesses and individuals a secure and realistic alternative to cloud computing.
get2Clouds is a cost free and ad free secure cloud sync, file transfer, and messenger bubble where every action is encrypted. It is a multi-platform and user-friendly app that works across all devices, and it is packed with a host of unique features. There is no registration required, and the E2E encrypted messenger offers users the choice of a 555 number so privacy and anonymity are guaranteed. This means the messenger can also be used on SIM-less devices.
“In creating get2Clouds we wanted to make the cloud a safe place to store data, but cloud computing is still not for everyone,” explained Oliver Wessling engineer and CEO of NOS Microsystems. “That’s why we added these new features. No matter how safe you make the data in your cloud, it is still the responsibility of someone else to store it and keep it safe. It could potentially be deleted through no fault of your own. You are also completely at the mercy of the cloud provider’s terms and conditions, and service interruptions you cannot control can occur. On top of that, some small businesses simply don’t need to move to the cloud. They can handle all their data on their own servers,” he added.
NOS Microsystems has promised to continue to add new features to the cyber security app as needs are identified. The company aims to offer a secure solution to industries that deal with sensitive files and depend upon confidentiality such as the law, journalism, and healthcare industries. The healthcare industry is the most cyber hacked, but most of these hacks would not have been possible if get2Clouds had been used.
“get2Clouds is a working progress. As needs develop so will this solution,” continued Mr. Wessling. “Encryption and cyber security is our business. We might be a small company, but we are giants when it comes to these topics.”
Users can send files via their NAS, the get2Clouds secure cloud, or sync to their current cloud as it works with all major cloud providers. To sync and send via the NAS, choose the SFTP (NAS) option from the dropdown menu in Cloud Settings and complete the relevant fields. A group transfer option has also been added so that files can be sent to multiple contacts at once.
