Kiteworks New Mobile App Provides Senior Executives Enhanced Productivity and Security
We are pleased to announce the release of the new Kiteworks mobile app for secure file sharing and governance. We’re pretty excited about this app. We think it is going to be a game-changer for busy executives who need secure, 24/7 access to critical business data and an easy-to-use solution for secure mobile file sharing.
To understand our excitement, consider a typical day in the life of any senior executive, say a VP, President, or C-level executive. These executives are seldom at their desks, where they could respond methodically to email as it comes in. Instead, they’re in countless meetings, taking calls in the car, traveling all over the world visiting facilities, talking to customers or partners, and closing business.
Work doesn’t wait for them to get back into the office. As a result, they need real-time access to the most current data in order to make important decisions: Do we accept the customer’s terms? Is this presentation ready for the board of directors meeting? Do we hire this candidate? Does this discount cut too deep? The list of critical business decisions goes on and on.
And they need a way of communicating confidential information securely. They need fast, convenient secure mobile file sharing that works on smartphones and tablets. And because the information is more often than not sensitive in nature, senior executives need to have the confidence they can download it and share it without fear of the data being compromised, whether it’s a leak, breach, or malware infection.
Is this document from a customer sent via Dropbox safe to open? Has the data I’ve received and am about to forward met our internal DLP requirements? If an executives loses a phone or tablet, will someone be able to view the company’s new confidential sales forecast?
Senior executives now have a single solution that addresses the dual requirement of productivity and security: Kiteworks new app for secure mobile file sharing.
This is the mobile app for senior executives and business professionals who need to access and share content efficiently and securely while working outside of the office. All of the capabilities senior executives have grown accustomed to when using Kiteworks secure file sharing platform at their desk are now available in the new Kiteworks mobile app.

Frequently Asked Questions
Cybersecurity Risk Management is a strategic approach used by organizations to identify, assess, and prioritize potential threats to their digital assets, such as hardware, systems, customer data, and intellectual property. It involves conducting a risk assessment to identify the most significant threats and creating a plan to address them, which may include preventive measures like firewalls and antivirus software. This process also requires regular monitoring and updating to account for new threats and organizational changes. The ultimate goal of Cybersecurity Risk Management is to safeguard the organization’s information assets, reputation, and legal standing, making it a crucial component of any organization’s overall risk management strategy.
The key components of a Cybersecurity Risk Management program include risk identification, risk assessment, risk mitigation, and continuous monitoring. It also involves developing a cybersecurity policy, implementing security controls, and conducting regular audits and reviews.
Organizations can mitigate cybersecurity risks through several strategies. These include implementing strong access control measures like robust passwords and multi-factor authentication, regularly updating and patching systems to fix known vulnerabilities, and conducting employee training to recognize potential threats. The use of security software, such as antivirus and anti-malware programs, can help detect and eliminate threats, while regular data backups can mitigate damage from data breaches or ransomware attacks. Having an incident response plan can minimize damage during a cybersecurity incident, and regular risk assessments can identify and address potential vulnerabilities. Lastly, compliance with industry standards and regulations, such as the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards, can further help organizations mitigate cybersecurity risks.
A risk assessment is a crucial part of Cybersecurity Risk Management. It involves identifying potential threats and vulnerabilities, assessing the potential impact and likelihood of these risks, and prioritizing them based on their severity. This helps in developing effective strategies to mitigate these risks.
Continuous monitoring is a vital component of Cybersecurity Risk Management, providing real-time observation and analysis of system components to detect security anomalies. This enables immediate threat detection and response, helping to prevent or minimize damage. It also ensures compliance with cybersecurity standards and regulations, allowing organizations to quickly address any areas of non-compliance. By tracking system performance, continuous monitoring aids in identifying potential vulnerabilities, while the data gathered informs decision-making processes about resource allocation, risk management strategies, and security controls.
