Cortado Server: Solve All Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) Challenges With Just One Solution
Discover the only enterprise mobility management (EMM) solution that combines the integration of mobile devices into your company with unique features for mobile file handling and file sharing.
Enterprise File Sharing (EFS) & Virtual Data Rooms (VDR)
Secure enterprise file sharing (EFS) is the basis of many business processes. Cortado provides the leading solution in this area. It enables employees easy, secure file access and exchange with any device. When collaborating with external colleagues, virtual data rooms are available – fully secure behind the corporate firewall.
Easy Enterprise File Access from Any Device
Access to files is the first step to file sharing. With its apps for iPhone, iPad and Android, as well as its web app, Cortado offers state-of-the-art tools in this area. In addition, documents remain where they were before the implementation of Cortado – on the company’s central file server. Employees can access all existing documents, while all rights and compliance rules are fully adhered to. This allows documents to be easily shared with employees in the back office.
Maximum Productivity in the Secure Business Container
Only the combination of file access with apps like Microsoft Office or email deliver true mobile productivity. With app management by Cortado, the required apps are easily embedded and made available in a secure business container. Employees have access to all relevant apps while the company retains full control over data. Comprehensive printing support adds to the range of features designed for professional file handling.
Virtual Data Rooms: Secure File Sharing Beyond Company Boundaries
Whether working together on a project, ensuring documents are available for the board or when collaborating together with external colleagues like freelancers – the question often comes up of how to securely share documents. Access to the company’s own server by external colleagues is often undesirable. Moving data to the cloud is also unsuitable. Cortado’s virtual data rooms offer the ideal solution here. Completely on-premises, they provide external colleagues easy access to shared project rooms while ensuring the company benefits from the highest levels of security.
Mobile Device Management (MDM)
Discover efficient mobile device management (MDM). Get the MDM solution for easy, secure, and productive integration of mobile devices into the enterprise.
Cortado is characterized by its sleek and productive approach to MDM. Mobile devices are easily managed and become highly productive. This is due to three essential elements:
-
Integration into the existing Active Directory allows the direct use of all user information, including group membership and rights
-
Support of Android and iOS native operating system features avoids any overhead.
-
An HTLM5-based management interface makes administration so easy, even in the largest environments.
-
Quick and Easy Setup of Devices
No matter whether you want to include tablets and smartphones owned by employees into your mobile device management or brand new equipment directly from the manufacturer, Cortado offers the best solution. For example, employees located in a foreign office can enable and setup a new device completely independently. Cortado Server also fully supports Apple’s Device Enrollment Program.
-
Unified Management of Devices, Apps, File Access and Printing
When setting up the devices, Cortado Server also creates a business container with the required productivity apps. It includes not just the e-mail and intranet apps, but also the Cortado app, which allows users to access the file server. And setting up corporate printers on the device is also extremely easy. In just one step, devices are integrated into the device management and at the same time a highly-productive potential for employees is created.

Update Conflicts? Not with Cortado Server
Cortado fully utilizes the features of the iOS and Android operating systems. Problems when updating no longer occur. This is because compatibility is ensured by Apple and Google. Your employees benefit right from the start from the advantages of new operating system versions. Cortado offers for each platform and each device the best possible implementation of the management features that are available. This means that IT administrators don’t have to reinvent the wheel for each platform.
Mobile Application Management (MAM)
Easily and securely providing employees with the right apps is key to effective mobile application management. From the beginning, Cortado has focused on the native management capabilities of the mobile operating systems.
Other providers’ approaches of adding a mobile application management layer have proved expensive, complex and also particularly limiting. With the features it offers, Cortado is the leader in native mobile application management. In addition, no other EMM solution is as easy and fast when deploying any app to employees’ devices. The basis for the native application management is formed by Apple’s iOS, Android for Work as well as Samsung Knox.
Remain in Control with Application Push and Blacklisting
Depending on whether devices are owned by the employee (BYOD) or by the company (COPE), employees have varying degrees of freedom. Apps that are deemed necessary by the company can be installed over the air on devices via the Application Push feature. Apps which are considered a security threat or which do not comply with corporate guidelines can be blocked by blacklisting, even if instances where employees manually install them.
Quick Setup of E-Mail Accounts and Domain Management
The e-mail and browser app are integral to every mobility strategy. Cortado allows companies to automatically set up e-mail accounts on mobile devices. By defining specific domains it is also possible to enable secure browsing of intranet pages. So with just a few clicks in the Management Console, mobile devices are readied for secure browser and e-mail use.
Flexible Integration of Apps in the Secure Business Container
The business container is a collection of apps that can only exchange data with each other. This ensures that no business data ends up in in privately used apps. The native e-mail app, domain management, application push and blacklisting form the foundation of the business container. Once these are laid, the business container can be expanded flexibly with any apps – whether self-written or from any of the app stores. Include the Cortado app in the container, and this is automatically connected with the corporate file and print infrastructure, enabling secure collaboration among mobile and non-mobile employees.
Mobile Printing with Android & iOS in Your Company
Cortado provides comprehensive printing support for Android and iOS. No matter which app, which printer or at which location – get the right print option for every situation.
Use any network printer
Whether using an iPad, iPhone or Android device – employees use the familiar print function to print to network printers in the company. In doing so, each user can choose from the same printers available to him on his desktop computer. Settings like the number of copies, page range, color/black and white, and Duplex can also be selected right in the print dialog box.
Print from any app, anywhere
Cortado users print e-mails directly from the e-mail app, websites directly from the browser, and files from any other app with print function. Files from applications without a print option can be shared easily with the Cortado app and sent from there to the nearest network printer. It doesn’t matter where the user is located. A printout can even be launched from outside the company.
Secure Printing
The network printers are assigned using the existing Active Directory rights. As a result, employees using their mobile devices can choose from only those printers that are also available to them on the desktop. All print jobs are created in the company behind the secure firewall. SSL encryption provides maximum security of the print data on its way from the mobile device to the printer.
Confidential Printing
Prevent confidential printouts from falling into the wrong hands. With the integrated Personal Printing technology, it is possible to require the scanning of a QR code at the network printer with a smartphone or tablet before allowing the printout to proceed, keeping your documents secure.
On-the-Fly Wi-Fi Printing
Have you ever left a ticket lying on your desk? Do you need a contract signed while at an on-site meeting? In many situations being able to print to the nearest printer on the fly is necessary, whether at the client’s office or in the hotel lobby. Cortado gives you this with Wi-Fi Printing.
Universal Printing via E-Mail
E-mail provides the universal print option. In the process, the user simply sends the desired document as an attachment to an e-mail address assigned to the printer. This method works even if the file in question is located inside a completely sealed off business container.
Mobile Security & Control
Cortado Server is based on a three-tier security concept. Mobile security is ensured on the device, during data transmission and when accessing the backend.
An important pillar is the full integration of Active Directory, which uses the existing rights also for mobile devices. This avoids a second level of duplicate user administration for mobile devices. Further pillars are formed with comprehensive data encryption, as well as focusing on just one access point for mobile device management, file sharing and Microsoft Exchange. A sophisticated password system ensures security is not compromised when entering passwords in public spaces, as well as authentication when in offline mode. Supplemented by extensive auditing, the solution meets the highest security and compliance requirements.
Native Container: Secure Corporate Data, Efficient Productivity
Based on the secure iOS and Android for Work management features, a secure container for business apps and data can be easily created. In addition to the native mail app and all other managed apps, this includes the Cortado app for efficient network access and file sharing, as well as a secure browser for access to intranet sites and apps. This combines the highest levels of data security with the maximal productivity of mobile employees.
Minimal Local Data Storage
With Cortado Server, the need for potentially unsafe data storage on the mobile device is minimized. Thanks to anytime, anywhere access to the corporate network, local stockpiling of data is redundant. In addition, many features such as printing, faxing, and the forwarding of files via e-mail are completed server-side in the backend. Even for viewing files, no download is necessary – instead of the original file, a data-optimized preview is loaded on the device.
Immediate Security Measures For Lost Devices
The loss of a smartphone, tablet or notebook requires an immediate response. However, not all companies have an IT administrator available around the clock. This is where the User Self Service Portal comes into play. Accessible for users with any internet browser, it allows a lost device to be placed in “Lost” mode and prevent any unauthorized access. In addition, users can initiate a search for their device. It that offers no success, data on the device can be remotely wiped, either partially wiped with only business data being deleted, or alternatively the device can be fully wiped.
Easy and Secure Enterprise Mobility Management for Service Providers and Enterprises
Whether for service providers or IT departments – multitenancy makes managing devices and apps even easier and more secure. Customers or user groups can be managed as tenants via the central Cortado management console. The data of the individual tenants remain strictly separate from each other. Each group has a separate place and only authorized persons are granted access.
ADVANTAGES
-
More efficiency
Service providers and IT departments manage just one central Cortado console.
-
Improved flexibility
New tenants are added instantly, without having to setup an additional account.
-
Full data security
Each tenant has their own SQL database and their own Active Directory connection. Only authorized users are granted access.
