What is Koofr?
Koofr brings web-app link controls to Android days after a 24-hour DDoS.
Koofr is a privacy-focused cloud storage service. Its newest release gives the Android app the web app's advanced link settings: passwords, messages, QR codes, visit and upload counts, and receive links that route files to a folder via a unique email address. It lands three days after an incident report on a nearly 24-hour, extortion-driven DDoS, the third availability disruption since April.
What is Skedda?
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.

Koofr
5.0COLLAB
Koofr brings web-app link controls to Android days after a 24-hour DDoS.
◆ Current state
Koofr is a privacy-focused cloud storage service. Its newest release gives the Android app the web app's advanced link settings: passwords, messages, QR codes, visit and upload counts, and receive links that route files to a folder via a unique email address. It lands three days after an incident report on a nearly 24-hour, extortion-driven DDoS, the third availability disruption since April.
◆ Where it's heading
Product work is closing parity gaps across clients: a rebuilt iOS app in June, document scanning in July, browser-extension upgrades in September and now Android sharing. Running alongside it is a recurring availability problem (April DDoS, September data-center connectivity, October DDoS) that the entries show being handled reactively.
◆ Prediction
Expect the same link controls or other web-app features to keep moving into the mobile apps; whether Koofr ships visible resilience measures after the October attack is not clear from the entries.
Skedda
6.3COLLAB
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
◆ Current state
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.
◆ Where it's heading
Skedda is shifting from a booking front end to a source of workplace attendance data. Companion's MDM rollout aims at complete presence coverage, which makes the occupancy analytics and API more valuable as more laptops report in.
◆ Prediction
Expect occupancy and presence data to reach the API, since Skedda said more API capabilities are planned and Companion now feeds richer attendance data.
