Independent folders

In addition to centrally managed folders, users can also define (or create) their own folders and store files there securely encrypted (e.g. as a private local directory, on a USB stick or as a directory at Dropbox or another cloud service provider). As with centrally managed folders, permissions to access data in such individual encrypted folders can be given to additional users.

In addition to certificates, passwords can also be used for authentication. This makes it easier to share files and use Mobile Encryption.

The management information is only stored in the respective folder, i.e. it is not available on the DES and the folder can therefore not be managed via the DOC.
