How It Works : Security
Airdocs EFA is a secure software system and you can be confident using it within your organization. The system enforces the existing user and group privileges on your LAN that are maintained by NT domain or Active Directory. In addition, the system uses strong encryption to ensure that any data it transmits is undecipherable, even if it is being transmitted within an already secure VPN.

Authentication and Access Privileges
You do not have to manage user account information within Airdocs. This is because the system hooks in to your existing the NT domain or Active Directory. Individual threads of execution within the Airdocs EFA server process actually log themselves in as the user on who's behalf they are running, which guarantees that remote access through Airdocs provides the user with exactly the same privileges they have when accessing their file shares normally.

Strong Encryption
Airdocs EFA applies powerful encryption to all of its data communications, adding an additional layer of security even within a VPN. The encryption used is so powerful you can even be confident running the system outside of a VPN over the raw Internet, if a route can be made through your firewall to the Airdocs server (Airdocs is able to login independently of the Windows session so long as valid credentials are available). This can be used to provide customers, freelancers and other third parties with restricted access to internal file shares, and to reduce the number of VPN clients that must be installed and maintained on remote and mobile machines. Airdocs uses maximum strength 1024 bit Diffie-Hellman Secret Key Exchange and Blowfish to create secure connections.
