Today's businesses are characterized by constant changes in political, social, financial and technological spheres. Businesses operate in very dynamic and unpredictable environments. It has now become a need for organisations to adapt to these frequent changes. Adapting smart technologies as changing strategies is essential for companies to ensure success and survival.

Now just imagine a situation where an important financial document is being encrypted after creating the yearly revenue report. During the following year a new financial team is put in place, and when it's time for the yearly report they realize the financial document the previous team used is now encrypted with credentials no one has access to any longer.

AxCrypt has now added a new feature which is a solution to the above issue called Master key along with its other features like Advanced Encryption Standard, cloud storage awareness and key sharing. It is now available in Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS platforms.
