Get rid of your file server but

You may already have a file server or other means of a local server from where you share documents, it could even be the old PC in the corner of your office. It’s too outdated to be used for your daily business but good enough for sharing files and hold backups. However in terms of security, this is a risky solution. A server is built to be a server and therefore composed of high quality components built with redundancy, meaning it is running on multiple disks and will swap disks or other components automatically without the need to shut down. For Byfrost hosting security information, see Hosting.

The main purpose of a file server is to provide high security access for users to shared files and networks. All of this is already included in Byfrost.

Update, synchronise or just move the top level folder on your file server into Byfrost’s Hot Folder, and the full folder structure including documents and files will automatically be recreated or updated in Byfrost.
