Why using idgard for data transfer?
Secure your company’s future with protected data
Sensitive processes such as due diligence reviews, board communications, and committee work demand the highest level of protection for confidential data. To ensure maximum data security, companies often resort to local data storage and complex IT infrastructures. With idgard, these processes are seamlessly conducted through a cloud-based solution without compromising on data privacy. This results in significant time and cost savings for businesses, as the administration of IT infrastructure is eliminated and secure data transfer with customers, as well as safe digital teamwork, are made possible on a single platform.

Frequently asked questions
How does data exchange with idgard work between companies?
You can add an existing idgard user to any Privacy Box (the shared cloud repository) by sharing the Privacy Box with the relevant user. If the user does not yet have an idgard account, you can assign a guest license and add the user to the respective box. If you have created a user with a guest license, send them the link for their registration. The user creates their own login data when registering. To be able to create a guest license user, you need at least a full license and the authorization to create a guest.
What is the difference between an administrator, a full license and a guest license?
Admin License
Each full license can have administration rights from an administrator. In the self-service mode, each administrator can book additional full and guest licenses as well as data rooms and issue full licenses to employees as well as guest licenses.
Full license
All internal employees receive a full license and can use all functions: create boxes, upload and download documents, write messages, chat and create their own PrivacyBoxes and invite guests with a guest license. A full license user can use all clients and be integrated into Active Directory / LDAP.
Guest license
Guest licenses are usually given to external partners or customers for secure data exchange. A guest license user can exercise all functions in the boxes to which he has been invited (individually adjustable rights management for each box). Guest license users cannot create their own boxes and cannot assign guest licenses themselves. Guest licenses cannot be assigned via LDAP/EMS. Without a fixed license, a so-called reading link / one-time access to a box can also be granted via the “Share” function. In this case, files from a box can only be downloaded by the recipient. However, the recipient cannot upload any documents to the box himself or communicate with the sender. Read access is intended for secure one-way transmission of documents, but not for sustained communication.
