NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwired) — 12/11/13 — Varonis Systems, Inc., a provider of software solutions for unstructured, human-generated enterprise data, today announced the general availability of DatAnywhere 1.5, adding to the functionality of a secure collaboration solution that has gained strong customer adoption in its first year of existence.

Varonis DatAnywhere extends the usability of corporate file-sharing infrastructure to enable traditional file servers and NAS devices to behave like a cloud-based service and is available for Windows, Mac OS X, iOS, and Android clients. The new release includes a number of enhanced features to better enable secure collaboration both within the enterprise and with partners, customers and suppliers. The enhancements found in version 1.5 improve the overall user experience and security, and allow files to be shared more effectively and efficiently.

Enhancements in Varonis DatAdvantage 1.5 include:

– The ability for IT administrators and data owners to logically group collections of shares and automatically make them available to all or select users based on Active Directory attributes. Offering an alternative to mapped drives, these shared workspaces drastically simplify configuration for collaboration at scale and provide an easy way to ensure that end users have continually updated content.

– Enabling end users to more granularly select subfolders and files that sync to each device. This provides users with increased flexibility and control over locally stored data, helping to simplify configuration and preserve local disk space.

– Support for single sign-on (SSO) and certificate-based authentication, which simplifies administration, improves security and adds flexibility.

– Allowing administrators to specify DFS roots as DatAnywhere-enabled directories, making the overall experience more user-friendly and simplifying administration.

– Enables users to resume partial downloads, prioritize uploads, and introduces additional direct actions from the sync event log. Faster files transfers and master-copy creation on the server enhance the user experience.

Yaki Faitelson, Varonis CEO, President and co-founder, said, “Since launching DatAnywhere, we-ve seen enterprises of all sizes embrace this new solution to a widely recognized problem. Businesses need to foster collaboration within their organizations, and with key outside entities, in a safe and secure way. DatAnywhere helps organizations achieve a critically needed balance between productivity and security. To further address the needs of enterprise IT and business leaders, the new features in DatAnywhere 1.5 will provide users with more flexibility and options for sharing, along with an even better experience.”

Faitelson continued, “At Varonis, we are continuously striving to expand our solution set in order to provide enterprises with the best and most comprehensive solutions to get more out of their unstructured data with less risk, and less cost. Human-generated data inside the enterprise is the next wave in big data, and Varonis is well positioned to become a leader in this space.”
