Security Levels in MobiDrive

Why you can trust MobiDrive?

MobiDrive is a constantly evolving and secure cloud that can help you seamlessly store and manage all your documents, images, and videos. It uses TLS encryption for all data transits, and it’s built with an infrastructure that protects and backs up your work and provides swift and focused access to it.

And since data protection is the constant and highest goal, your MobiDrive cloud offers you a top-notch security level of service, compatible with personal and organizational storage - a safe space for information, identities, and applications.

What MobiDrive offers:

  • Reliability - MobiDrive uses industry-leading cloud service providers to store users’ files. It provides services like sharing, file versions, offline files, etc. Based on the SLAs of those providers, MobiDrive ensures 99.95% monthly uptime and 99.999999999% annual durability.
  • Fully GDPR compliant, MobiDrive collects the minimum amount of personal data necessary for its services. Users have the rights to access and receive a copy of their personal data held by MobiDrive. Users can also rectify any information they find inaccurate and request deletion of all data, including files stored in MobiDrive.
  • Security - all users’ files are fully protected and cannot be accessed without proper authentication. MobiDrive offers a variety of authentication methods like Google, Facebook, and Apple, including a custom authentication with Email and a password. Users are responsible for keeping their identity safe and secure. Keep in mind that MobiDrive is not liable for data leaks or losses due to external identity theft (for example, using a compromised Facebook account or exposed email and password).

The security level is additionally supported by the HTTPS protocol for all data transfers. Every connection between the MobiDrive apps and our servers is encrypted, so your files and personal information cannot be intercepted or read by third parties while they are being transferred.

Which encryption standards are used?

  • In transit: All data is transferred over HTTPS secured with TLS. The strongest TLS version supported by your device or browser is negotiated automatically, which in most cases is TLS 1.3.
  • At rest: All files are encrypted with AES-256 and are never stored unencrypted.

MobiDrive also provides functions that are specially designed to increase security. For example, File Versions is a protection against ransomware as it allows restoration of the last available version before the attack.

We use servers on all continents in order to comply with local regulations and to keep the data close to users for faster response times. Which servers are used exactly depends on the location of the specific user account.

For user accounts created from a country in the European Union (e.g. Germany), MobiDrive data is always stored on servers in the European Union. The exact country may change over time as we extend and optimize our infrastructure, but it will always remain a member state of the EU (excluding the UK and Switzerland).

Additional security measures:

  • Encryption in transit and at rest
  • Cloud compliance
  • SLA availability (Service-level agreement availability)
  • End-to-end privacy protection
  • PIPEDA compliance
  • 6-layer security as a higher level of protection
