Fourth Patent by Virtual StrongBox Protects File Transfer Between Devices

Virtual StrongBox, Inc. has received a fourth patent for its software, which safeguards clients’ data (and that of their customers) at all times.

At whether consumers are dealing with their financial institution, healthcare provider or insurance agent, they demand convenience – but not at the expense of security. For these and other high-risk enterprises, ensuring safety and positive customer experiences can be challenging. In response, the firm is transforming how businesses handle security, customer convenience and back-office operations.

The company’s encryption-protected, end-to-end customer engagement platform enables organizations managing sensitive data to provide secure file-exchange services to their customers, while ensuring safe online storage in its private cloud.

Ron Daly, president/CEO, Virtual StrongBox, says this patent strengthens the firm’s ability to help high-security-risk firms implement a ‘customer first’ model.

“An open API strategy enables our platform to be integrated with legacy systems so clients can take advantage of cloud computing without placing sensitive information at risk,” Daly said. “In turn, enabling customers and employees to use their own digital devices advances the consumerization of IT in the cloud.“

Company’s platform can be securely integrated into various workflow processes, saving costs and the time to process time-sensitive customer documents or internal files, while ensuring safe online storage and quick, digital access to files.

Earlier this year, the company earned two other patents, one covering the use of mobile phones and other digital devices to access the system, and another for a security enhancement covering its process for capturing files from the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) stream. In 2015, the firm was granted a patent for its secure storage system and encryption-at-rest process.

The company is known for secure data protection, offering enterprises and their customers the assurance that their documents are safe, whether in transit, when stored or while being acted upon.

“This fourth patent recognizes the unique way Virtual StrongBox connects legacy systems to consumers’ personal technology, serving as a bridge,” Daly said. “I like to think of our company as the ‘virtual’ middleware that gives existing technology a less-costly pathway to take advantage of the latest innovations.”

Virtual StrongBox is available in either a private-cloud sofwareas-a-service model or private-cloud licensing model for the enterprise. Nearly 300 clients, serving 3.5 million consumers and business owners, rely on Virtual StrongBox.
