idgard

According to its makers, idgard has earned the trust of over 1,200 companies worldwide, which use it to protect their digital exchanges with partners and customers. The service runs on the web and is aimed at businesses that need to work on shared material without exposing it to outsiders.

Data rooms set up per project

The core idea is the project data room. A team can open one quickly for a deal, a client engagement or any piece of joint work, then invite the people who need to see the material. File sharing inside the room is meant to be efficient and highly secure, so documents are exchanged in a controlled space and not by loose email attachments.

Access from anywhere

People who travel or work away from the office can reach their data through a mobile app or a browser. The vendor stresses that nobody else has access to the stored content, which is the point of the product: collaboration with outside parties without handing control of the files to anyone beyond those invited.
