iTwin announces Multi functionality, wants to host USB filesharing collabs
If you jumped on the iTwin bandwagon, you're about to get even more functionality from your filesharing USB. The company has announced Multi, a free upgrade that will allow users to share files stored on a Windows machine or Mac with a few of their cohorts simultaneously. Once you snag the update, plugging multiple iTwins into the same computer will allow remote access for multiple users via an internet connection. This piece of kit allows you to skip the cloud when collaborating on projects as the files never leave the host machine. Existing iTwin users will be prompted for an update when plugging in the device as a whole. All the details on how the tech works are in the PR, just after the break.

iTwin Launches Multi Functionality
iTwin Multi expands secure remote file access solution to workgroups
Las Vegas – January 10, 2012 – iTwin Inc., the company that created iTwin, the world's first 'limitless' secure USB device for remote file access, today announced its new iTwin Multi functionality. This free iTwin upgrade enables users to share files stored on a computer with multiple people at the same time.
With iTwin Multi, multiple users and workgroups can simply and safely connect multiple iTwins to the same computer to remotely access, edit and share files, without the headaches associated with email, VPN, or remote access software. For example, using iTwin Multi, field sales reps can remotely download or upload the latest confidential client contracts and proposals. Similarly, small businesses such as CPA firms can securely share large accounting files and other sensitive data with multiple clients.
"With iTwin Multi, iTwin not only provides file access but also a simple and secure means to share and collaborate. This feature was developed in response to the demands of many of our customers," said Lux Anantharaman, co-founder and CEO of iTwin.
Accessing information while on the go is a must in today's fast paced world. However, technologies like cloud-storage and traditional USB flash drives often lack sufficient security, privacy, or affordable capacity. iTwin is a breakthrough in file access technology that was developed with these factors in mind, yet is really easy to use.
iTwin is the first and only remote file access solution that is truly Plug'N'Play, and that also provides two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption. Comprising two identical parts, iTwin can be used on any Internet-connected computer running Windows or Mac OS X. Plug one half of iTwin into the computer, drag'n'drop files for remote access and those files can be accessed from any other computer into which the matching half is plugged.
