AWS Wickr announces a Preview experience for files
AWS Wickr announces the launch of Wickr File Previews. This new feature empowers organizations to protect sensitive files and lower the risk of data loss, by allowing network administrators to configure a “view-only” mode in the Security Groups section of the AWS Management Console for Wickr. Users within these security groups will be restricted to only viewing the supported files, and will be unable to download them.
AWS Wickr is a security-first messaging and collaboration service with features designed to help keep your communications secure, private, and compliant. AWS Wickr protects one-to-one and group messaging, voice and video calling, file sharing, screen sharing, and location sharing with end-to-end encryption. Customers have full administrative control over data, which includes addressing information governance polices, configuring ephemeral messaging options, and deleting credentials for lost or stolen devices. You can log internal and external conversations in an AWS Wickr network to a private data store that you manage for data retention and auditing purposes.
AWS Wickr is available in commercial AWS Regions that include US East (N. Virginia), AWS Canada (Central), AWS Asia Pacific (Malaysia, Singapore, Sydney, and Tokyo), and AWS Europe (London, Frankfurt, Stockholm, and Zurich). It is also available in AWS GovCloud (US-West) as FedRAMP High and Department of Defense Impact Level 5 (DoD IL5)-authorized AWS WickrGov.
