A pragmatic solution to respond to the growing challenges of Shadow IT
Cloud storage becoming the favoured solution adopted by businesses to facilitate collaboration (80% of employees already use collaborative tools in the public cloud to maximise their productivity*), Data security and Data ownership in the Cloud have become major challenges for today’s businesses.
Thanks to its unique encryption solution guaranteeing complete control and safety of cloud-stored data, Tanker offers IT Management a pragmatic response to regulate the growing Shadow usage of those new tools deployed in the cloud.
“This certification is for us a real recognition. We are determined to offer businesses we work with a reliable and proven solution to help respond to the new legal and technical problematic brought on by the Cloud. Tanker is today the only French firm able to provide a software solution allowing businesses to fully embrace those new uses whilst maintaining full data ownership” Guillaume Pontallier, co-founder of Tanker
