File Sharing: Risk or Remedy?

Despite the need for effective document collaboration in the enterprise, many organisations are failing to provide their employees with the right tools to get the job done. Today’s knowledge worker wants platform-agnostic, on-demand access to their files whenever and wherever they need them... and they’ll bring this functionality into the organisation whether IT approves of it or not.

As a result, end-users are driving the adoption of cloud-based file sharing solutions such as Dropbox and Box, while corporate IT departments tend to dismiss these tools due to security concerns - both perceived and real.
