A story - Bank wants a Dropbox-like HTTPS/SSL based user interface

A personal banking services company in India has 1300 branches and more than 10,000 users. The bank offers a variety of services to its customers, including Internet banking, mobile banking, and online bill payment, etc. They have files on a CIFS storage. They don't want to expose the SMB shares directly. As a banking service provider, security is a top priority. For this reason, they were looking for a more secure solution to access the existing CIFS storage. Data loss prevention, digital rights management and anti-virus are some of the aspects they considered. They have researched Dropbox and are excited about some of its features. However, due to security concerns, they are leaning toward a Dropbox-like solution with a more controlled, more secure, and more web-oriented access, an HTTPS/SSL web-based user interface.

The Dropbox Problem
- Workplace Invasion by Consumer Tools

The "Dropbox" Problem

The unsanctioned use of consumer-oriented file sharing services in businesses is a growing issue. It has been coined “the Dropbox problem”.

workplace facing the Dropbox problem

For remote or work-from-home employees, it’s common to use Dropbox and third-party cloud services to backup and share local folders for easy access over the Internet. With Dropbox, you can access files in the cloud and easily share files with other colleagues.

However, the fact that internal company documents are stored on multiple devices and third-party hosting sites is a major concern that many companies face. While Dropbox can provide convenient access outside of a company's firewall, it also creates liabilities for regulatory obligations and leakage of critical business information. Companies can not control where their files are located, making them vulnerable to data breaches.

As the CIO of a company, whether it's a large enterprise or a midsize business, you are now faced with the "Dropbox Problem".

In fact, leading companies like IBM have even banned their employees from using Dropbox and Apple's iCloud storage. While IBM is a big company that has its own infrastructure to ensure cloud file transfer, it is challenging for smaller companies to completely stop using third-party cloud storage services without providing their employees with an alternative option.

Would not it be great if you could self-host and manage a Dropbox-like service for your company that was under your own control, unlike Dropbox?

Triofox: An Enterprise Alternative to Dropbox

Triofox offers a secure enterprise solution to replace Dropbox.

It's a solution that you fully own and control. With Triofox, you can install and self-host the solution entirely on-premise or in the data center of a trusted service provider. It can also be integrated with file server storage, SAN storage or NAS storage.

In addition to the security guaranteed by the private nature of the solution, Triofox offers the same convenience as Dropbox: Remote access from any computer or device. Windows and Mac desktops display mapped drives natively in Explorer and Finder. The same experience is available on iOS and Android devices, as well as in popular web browsers.

Active Directory

No additional setup step is required to add Active Directory users. Users can simply log in to the on-premise Triofox Cloud web portal. When an employee leaves the company, you can simply deactivate their Active Directory entry, which also deactivates access to the solution.

Folder Permissions

There is an option to use the user's home directory information for access via web browsers and mobile devices. Employees can access the company wide personal home directory both at work and at home. NTFS permissions are here to protect file access.

Self-Hosted Solution

The solution can integrate with your own storage, whether it's network shares of file servers, SAN storage or NAS storage. The solution can be self-hosted in your own data centers and with your own IT infrastructure, giving you complete control, data ownership and data privacy.

How it works

With Triofox, businesses can privately deploy and self-host a file synchronization and sharing solution. It provides an access layer (with browser, mobile, desktop, and file server access) around private cloud storage services and local file server storage, while retaining full control over the data and infrastructure. It is like owning a private Dropbox server built on top of the enterprise file storage solutions.

Like Dropbox, we also have:
