Enterprise-Grade Security for Sensitive Data Communications
Kiteworks empowers organisations to securely share sensitive data with trusted third parties while maintaining complete visibility, control, and compliance. Designed for regulated industries and security-conscious enterprises, the Kiteworks Private Data Network unifies the exchange of sensitive files, emails, and web forms in one integrated solution. This minimises risk, streamlines operations, and ensures regulatory requirements are met—without compromising productivity.
By reducing the complexity of managing disparate tools and closing the gaps between various communication channels (email, file sharing and collaboration, managed file transfer, SFTP, web forms), Kiteworks helps organisations protect IP, maintain compliance with standards like GDPR, DORA, NIS2, and others. With its zero-trust architecture, detailed audit trails, and robust role-based and attribute-based access controls aligned to NIST CSF, Kiteworks is trusted by thousands of businesses and government agencies worldwide to manage and secure their most critical communications.
Consolidated Platform
Kiteworks unifies file sharing, managed file transfer, SFTP, secure email, and web forms in a single platform. This approach improves visibility and governance while reducing complexity and vendor sprawl across enterprise environments.
Zero Trust Architecture
Built with a zero-trust framework, Kiteworks ensures strong user authentication, least privilege access, and strict policy enforcement. This limits exposure, even in the event of compromised credentials or insider threats.
Granular Compliance Controls
With pre-built and highly customisable policies, Kiteworks helps organisations meet strict data protection regulations and evolving industry standards. The Private Data Network delivers comprehensive audit logging, geo-fencing, advanced DLP integration, and granular data residency controls in one unified platform. Role-based and attribute-based access controls aligned to NIST CSF ensure proper governance while maintaining operational efficiency and security.
Next-Generation DRM with Possessionless Editing
Kiteworks SafeEDIT redefines secure collaboration through next-generation DRM that keeps sensitive data within your secure perimeter. Users can edit any file type in real-time through their browser while the original file never leaves the Kiteworks environment. This innovative approach requires no plugins or agents, eliminates data breach risks, and enables seamless internal and external collaboration without compromising security or compliance.
