liquidfiles v3.2Introduction to the latest features（之二）：LDAP / Active Directory

LDAP / Active Directory Integration

With the LDAP/Active Directory Integration, you don't need to setup any users. Simply point your LiquidFiles Virtual Appliance to your LDAP server and your users will be able to authenticate and user accounts created automatically.

If you need, you can also set up multiple LDAP/AD servers and they will be searched in your specified order.

Strong, Two Factor Authentication

For some, using two factor authentication is the holy grail of security, and LiquidFiles support it out of the box. You can enable it for different groups of users, like all your administrators, or for individual users.

Single Sign-On (SSO)

LiquidFiles supports the standardized SAML2 standard for Single Sign-On, and also a simplified pre-shared secret method for automatically log users into your LiquidFiles system.

Speaks Your Language — Looks Like You

All public LiquidFiles pages are fully localizable. Many users have shared their language files and there are currently language files available for German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian, Turkish, Swedish, Czech & more.

You can override all stylesheets, upload your own logos to use on the front page, headers and footers. The text on the front page of your LiquidFiles installation is directly editable.

Integrates in your existing environment

LiquidFiles has an API that you can use to integrate Sending Large Files Securely from your existing system. It could be that you have a payment system and you want the send payslips to your employees directly from the payment system. You can then use the API to integrate sending files using LiquidFiles directly from the payment system and will not only send files securely but get tracking as well.

The API uses standardised protocols, http(s), REST, JSON and XML. You can use any programming language to send your secure files.

Your Files in Your Control An Auditors Dream

LiquidFiles is different from most other Large File Transfer Functions in that you will always have control over your data.

Regardless if you're sending board papers, CAD drawings of your latest invention, sensitive client or patient data — you can rest assured that your sensitive documents are not being shared on the same server as files from other companies or organizations.

Your Auditors will love this (this is if Auditors in fact love anything).

Local Deployment in your own data centre

If you want to deploy LiquidFiles in your own environment, download the VMware, Hyper-V or ISO image and install in your own data centre and under your control. If you want maximum performance and control of your data, this is the preferred and most secure way to deploy LiquidFiles. Much more Secure than any Cloud Service.

Cloud Deployment in the Amazon EC2 cloud

You can also choose to deploy LiquidFiles in your own private Amazon EC2 cloud. No local installation necessary and you still keep complete control over your data.

Cloud services are great, and we believe that this is the best of both worlds — someone else runs the servers for you. But this is still your installation, in your control. No one else can get access to your secure files and your files don't share location with files from other companies.
