Synology Drive: Secure Private Cloud Collaboration & Data Management by Epis Technology
Streamline Your Data Access and File Sharing
Synology Drive is the modern answer to scattered data and disorganized team collaboration. Designed for businesses that demand reliability and speed, it offers a seamless cloud-like experience within your own infrastructure. With Synology Drive, teams can access, sync, and share files securely across multiple platforms, all without relying on third-party cloud vendors. Whether you are managing internal documents, sharing large media files, or collaborating remotely, Synology Drive provides enterprise-grade synchronization while giving you complete control over your data.
Centralized File Management with Synology Drive Server
At the core of Synology’s ecosystem lies Drive Server, an intuitive, private cloud solution built into Synology NAS. It consolidates files from multiple computers and devices into a single secure hub, accessible anytime via a browser or the Synology Drive client app.
Key Features:
-
Real-Time Sync: Two-way synchronization ensures every update appears instantly across devices.
-
Cross-Platform Access: Available on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android.
-
Version Control: Easily restore or retrieve earlier file versions.
-
Access Permissions: Fine-tune user privileges and sharing policies to maintain data integrity.
-
Team Folder Management: Administrators can assign and manage team folders to simplify collaboration.
With Synology Drive, your office can operate as a unified digital workspace, allowing employees to collaborate securely, anywhere in the world.
Private Cloud Meets Hybrid Flexibility
Unlike public cloud platforms that often compromise privacy or involve recurring fees, Synology Drive empowers you to create a private cloud under your own control. At the same time, it integrates seamlessly with Synology C2 Cloud, providing hybrid backup, remote replication, and cross-site syncing.
Advantages of the Hybrid Model:
-
Redundancy: Keep copies of data both locally and in the cloud.
-
Disaster Recovery: Rapidly restore operations after unforeseen events.
-
Data Sovereignty: Ensure all sensitive data stays compliant with regional laws and internal policies.
Empowering Teams with Drive ShareSync
The Drive ShareSync feature allows multi-site teams to share and synchronize folders across different Synology NAS devices. Whether your teams are distributed across states or continents, everyone works on the same up-to-date files without latency.
Business Benefits:
-
Enables real-time document collaboration across offices.
-
Automatically syncs file changes between NAS units.
-
Provides flexible bandwidth control to optimize performance.
Intelligent File Versioning and Recovery
Version control is at the heart of Synology Drive’s smart data protection. Every file edit creates a snapshot that can be restored instantly. Combined with Synology’s Snapshot Replication, businesses can roll back data to previous versions in seconds, preventing data loss caused by ransomware or accidental deletion.
Enterprise-Grade Security and Compliance
Security is non-negotiable in the digital age. Synology Drive ensures end-to-end encryption, SSL/TLS secure transfer, and 2-factor authentication to safeguard user data.
Security Highlights:
-
AES-256 encryption at rest.
-
HTTPS and SSL/TLS protocols.
-
Granular file access logs.
-
Integration with Active Directory and LDAP for centralized authentication.
These measures guarantee compliance with modern data protection frameworks such as GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 standards.
Drive Admin Console: Full Control at Your Fingertips
The Admin Console provides IT administrators with comprehensive management and visibility:
-
Track user activity and file transfer statistics.
-
Manage sharing permissions across departments.
-
Enforce automatic file retention and cleanup policies.
-
Monitor synchronization health and versioning performance.
This level of control allows businesses to scale file collaboration securely without complexity.
Integrations for Productivity and Collaboration
Synology Drive integrates seamlessly with:
-
Synology Office (Docs, Sheets, Slides)
-
Synology Chat and Calendar
-
Windows Active Directory
-
Cloud Sync (Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive)
This unified ecosystem streamlines workflows while reducing the need for external SaaS dependencies.
