Kiteworks overview

What is Kiteworks?

The Kiteworks content firewall prevents data breaches and compliance violations from third party cyber risk. CIOs and CISOs rely on the Kiteworks platform for complete visibility, security and control over the communication of IP, PII, PHI, and other sensitive content across email, file sharing, mobile, enterprise apps, web portals, SFTP, and automated inter-business workflows. By consolidating security across third party communication channels, the Kiteworks content firewall simplifies complex infrastructure and reduces costs, while improving the user experience. When employees click the Kiteworks button, they know it’s the safe, secure way to share sensitive information with the outside world.

With on-premise, private cloud, hybrid and FedRAMP deployment options, the Kiteworks content firewall provides the security and governance CISOs need to protect their organizations, mitigate risk, and adhere to rigorous compliance regulations such as NIST 800-171, HIPAA, SOX, GDPR, CCPA, GLBA, and FISMA. Kiteworks solutions have protected more than 25 million end users at more than 3,000 global corporations and government agencies.
