  • Can several users connect simultaneously to the same IKIC account?

    5 users can connect simultaneously to a single iKeepinCloud account, regardless of the protocol used. But be careful not to work on the same documents!

  • Can iKeepinCloud be used with Rsync?

    Yes, you can use the RSync command through an SSH tunnel to perform scheduled backups.

  • Is my data really confidential?

    Yes, all your data is confidential. No IKOULA employee is authorized to monitor the data circulating on iKeepinCloud accounts. If necessary, you can use the TrueCrypt software. This software will enable you to encrypt your data on the fly on your iKeepinCloud online storage space.

  • Is iKeepinCloud really secure?

    At IKOULA, the security of your data is our top priority. Your data is stored in our own data centres in France. They are duplicated 3 times on 3 servers located in independent infrastructures. The SFTP protocol also enables you to make your transfers as secure as possible.

  • I can't connect without the software. But I'm following the tutorial!

    Please check that the password for your iKeepinCloud account is entered correctly. Entering the password incorrectly is a very common mistake! We've noticed that connection without software is often blocked by firewalls. This can happen, for example, with the Orange LiveBox firewall. To resolve this problem, log in to the administrator interface of your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to authorize connection to your iKeepinCloud service.

  • I've forgotten my iKeepinCloud password. How can I retrieve it?

    You can retrieve your password from the e-mail you received when you registered for iKeepinCloud. You can also change your iKeepinCloud password directly from the IKOULA Extranet. Log in to your IKOULA customer account and choose your iKeepinCloud service. An option will allow you to change your password.

Ikeepincloud appears natively in the Plesk control panel and enables you to make a full backup of your dedicated server in just a few clicks.

Using ‘Files history’, you can automate your backup to iKeepinCloud in just a few clicks.

    More than 100 compatible apps
    Ikeepincloud allows the use of any backup, transfer or mobile software using one of the many protocols available.

    • Backup software: plan, secure and choose from a hundred different options for ultra-customized backups
    • Mobile applications: free access to all your data from all existing smartphones and tablets (Windows Phone, iPhone, Android, etc.)
  • Which protocols are compatible with iKeepinCloud?

    HTTP / HTTPS
    Webdav (Web enabled Distributed Authoring and Versioning) is an extension of the HTTP protocol for managing directories and resources between a remote web server and a client. Integrated natively into most PCs, Mac OS or Linux, Webdav lets you retrieve and publish files quickly and easily. Webdav's main objective is to make it possible to write to the web and not just read data.
    Webdav enables:

    • The use of the HTTP protocol, which easily passes through NAT routers and firewalls,
    • Simple transport protection using the HTTPS protocol, which encrypts the content of the data being exchanged,
    • And seamless integration with all products that support Webdav.

    Indeed Webdav offers you three types of access. You can view and store your files:
    • Via a simple http(s) web browser that will redirect you to an interface developed by IKOULA, xxxxx.ikeepincloud.com,
    • Via customer access, or software, enabling a particular space to be connected directly to a server (they can run on PC, Mac OS or Linux),
    • Via the console integrated natively into Windows, Linux and Mac OS.

    FTP / FTPS
    FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is, as its name suggests, a file transfer protocol. It defines the way in which data is transferred over a network between a server and a client. To access an FTP server, FTP client software (with a graphic or command-line interface) is used. The secure variant of FTP with SSL or TLS protocols is called FTPS (strongly recommended).

    The advantages of FTP(S) include:
    • A simple FTP client is all you need to access the server, and FTP clients exist on all operating systems,
    • Access to web pages is identical to what it would be on a remote Internet server,
    • If you have permanent access to the Internet, this access may become visible to outsiders, so remember to block anonymous access to your server.

    With the FTP(S) protocol, you can consult and store your files via a client access or software (Windows, Linux or Mac OS) that offers a fun, easy-to-use interface.

    SFTP
    In the context of SSH (Secure Shell), SFTP is a communication protocol that runs on top of SSH to transfer and manage files remotely. It is also a command-line program that implements the client part of this communication protocol, like the one provided by winscp. SFTP supports many more operations on remote files and behaves more like a file system protocol. The SFTP program provides an interface similar to the FTP program.

    The advantages of SFTP are:
    • The connection between the client and the server is encrypted. Hackers, even if they control this connection, cannot read the confidential data (such as passwords) in transit. Your data is that much more secure!
    • Public key cryptography enables SFTP to guarantee mutual authentication of the client (user) and the server. This means that hackers cannot divert a connection to a server under their control.

    As with the FTP protocol, SFTP allows you to view and store your files via client or software access (Windows, Linux or Mac OS) via a user-friendly interface.

    Samba / CIFS
    The S.M.B protocol (‘Server Message Block’, formerly known as C.I.F.S for ‘Common Internet File System’) enables resources (files and printers) to be shared over local networks. It allows access to resources on other computers running Windows (natively), Apple Mac OS X, GNU/Linux, BSD and Solaris operating systems (via the ‘Samba’ application).

    The advantages of this protocol include:
    • Outstanding performance (bandwidth, latency, number of users),
    • Reliable, stable and easy to implement (can be used without a client on most recent systems),
    • Numerous and powerful tools available to simplify server administration (Apache, programming languages, etc.)
