NFC Vault

NFC Vault : Global File Locking

In today's fast-paced, collaborative work environments, maintaining data integrity and preventing conflicts is paramount, especially when handling complex files like AutoCAD and Revit. This is where our Global File Locking feature shines, ensuring that when you or your team access a file, it's locked to prevent simultaneous edits. Imagine working on critical projects without the fear of overwrites or data loss, enhancing collaboration efficiency and securing your documents. Whether you're in engineering, architecture, or any field requiring meticulous version control, our solution, integrated seamlessly with NFC vault and CentreStack, offers peace of mind by enabling seamless collaboration across different locations, all while ensuring your data's integrity and security. Say goodbye to the chaos of conflicting edits and embrace a streamlined, efficient workflow with Global File Locking.

Challenges

In today's collaborative work environments, businesses face significant challenges in maintaining data integrity and preventing conflicts, especially when handling complex files like AutoCAD and Revit. The absence of a robust global file locking mechanism leads to multiple users inadvertently working on the same file, resulting in overwrites, loss of work, and decreased efficiency. This situation underscores the need for a solution that alerts users when a file is opened by another and allows only one editor at a time to ensure data integrity.

Simultaneous Edits

Lack of alerts for simultaneous file access leads to overwrites and loss of critical work, hampering project timelines.

Data Integrity Risks

Without global file locking, businesses risk data corruption and version control issues, threatening project integrity.

Collaboration Inefficiency

The absence of file locking mechanisms results in decreased collaboration efficiency, as team members may unknowingly work on outdated versions.

Security Concerns

Inadequate file locking exposes sensitive documents to potential security breaches, compromising business confidentiality

Benefits

Global File Locking significantly improves collaborative work environments by maintaining data integrity, enhancing security, and increasing efficiency. It prevents the issues of data loss and version conflicts by disallowing concurrent file modifications, proving essential for teams working with sensitive files, such as those created in AutoCAD and Revit.

Prevent Data Loss

Ensures that when a file is being edited by one user, others can only access a read-only version, significantly reducing the risk of overwrites and data corruption.

Enhance Security

Provides an additional layer of security by locking files during editing, protecting sensitive documents from unauthorized changes and potential breaches.

Boost Efficiency

Streamlines collaboration by clearly indicating when files are in use, thus avoiding duplication of effort and ensuring team members work on the latest version.

Seamless Integration

Integrates effortlessly with NFC vault and CentreStack, offering a unified solution that supports remote work and simplifies file server access across locations.

Join the revolution: Secure, VPN-free remote data access with NFC vault!

Cloud Drive Mapping

Drive mapping is an important feature for online file access. End users can easily drag and drop files and folders from a set of mapped drives over the Internet without a VPN connection.

Global File Locking

File locking is a vital feature for online file access and team collaboration to avoid conflicts. End users need to control global concurrent online file access by using file locking to maintain consistency.

Permission Control

Dropbox and Google Drive don’t have the same level of centralized control as a file server. You might miss the NTFS permissions and the ability to know where your data is, who has access to it and what they’re doing with it.
