Security in your pocket: mobile work with encrypted documents from the company network on iOS and Android. Mobile clients for the encryption solution Conpal LAN Crypt.
Process corporate documents securely on smartphones and tablets - this is made possible by the enterprise encryption solution Conpal LAN Crypt with its new mobile clients. They can be used by employees on iOS and Android devices to work with encrypted files from the company network. The protection of the data remains persistent, no matter how it reaches the device: via email, via cloud storage such as OneDrive or Dropbox, via another app or via a direct connection. Conpal LAN Crypt encrypts all data based on roles. This means that every employee can access exactly those files on their mobile device for which they are authorized. Back in the office, he can continue working on his workstation computer as usual without the data protection being interrupted. This enables secure and GDPR-compliant mobile work, even with highly sensitive data. Conpal is one of the leading independent German providers of IT security solutions for protecting confidential data through encryption and authentication.
Role-based encryption of data
At its core, Conpal LAN Crypt offers persistent, role-based encryption of data. In this way, users in companies and authorities protect sensitive information from unauthorized external access. At the same time, they ensure that only authorized persons have access within the organization. This protection extends to all data storage media: network drives, local hard drives, optical media, USB, memory sticks / cards as well as storage technologies on-premises or in the cloud. With the two new clients Conpal LAN Crypt for Android and Conpal LAN Crypt for iOS, Conpal is now also extending the protection to mobile devices.
Features and security
For the administrator, the assignment of keys and policies for mobile devices means almost no additional work because it is fully integrated into the administration of conpal LAN Crypt. The administration interface allows users to be imported from directory services with just a few settings to create the necessary sets of rules for the automatic distribution of keys throughout the organization.
Maximum security through cryptographic procedures

With the new mobile clients, the user can download and decrypt files. They support multi-window such as slide over and split view, dark mode and “open with” actions for convenient access from other applications. The protection of the content is guaranteed by a sandbox system: All decrypted data remains in the context of the Conpal LAN Crypt app and is deleted after use. No plain text content can be seen in preview mode. The app also forces device security to be activated. Conpal LAN Crypt encrypts files with AES 256 and 128 bit, each in XTS and CBC mode. Certificates can be obtained from a PKI, whereby RSA keys up to 4096 bits are supported.
Enterprise-grade roll-out
The sophisticated administration concept enables fast and uncomplicated integration into the IT security architecture and thus simplifies the use of mobile clients in companies. The users download the app via the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store or obtain it as a push installation through MDM / UEM solutions. The import of certificates and policies takes place via a central distribution by the organization or the download via encrypted web communication.
