FileWay™ extends Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA) to provide users with complete remote file access

ITWorx, Inc., today announced at the MEC 2002 show in Anaheim, California, the availability of FileWay™ 1.1, a Microsoft Outlook Web Access add-on.  FileWay enables remote users to access documents on file servers and their personal PCs securely using only a web browser. This revolutionary development offers freedom and versatility from the complexities of VPN technology, the traditional method of remote file access.  No client software is required on the source or destination PCs.  FileWay leverages existing OWA security infrastructure and authorization policies.

"FileWay extends OWA to allow users complete file access from anywhere you can find the Internet without requiring additional software installation," said Chris Baker, lead product manager at Microsoft. "We are pleased ITWorx has provided this valuable benefit to the growing number of OWA users."

"Employees and IT management no longer need to endure the technical frustration and cost of VPNs just to have access to their corporate e-mail, files and PSTs.  Microsoft .NET delivers on its promises" said Bryon Bertrim, VP Business Development, ITWorx.

"FileWay is more secure than using a corporate VPN for remote file access, since nothing is added to the security mechanisms" stated Youssri Helmy, CEO, ITWorx. Complete FileWay documentation and information is located at http://www.fileway.com/
