All the file sharing, sync, and collaboration you relied on — running on a modern, secure foundation.
EFAdrive was built with a security-first mindset. Known high-risk vulnerabilities present in PHP 7.4-era deployments have been remediated, and the platform has been reviewed against modern security standards — from server configuration to application logic.
EFAdrive inherits the full ownCloud 10.x feature set — every capability your users and admins have today, running on a modern, supported foundation.
Feature set as shipped in ownCloud 10.x. EFAdrive preserves all of these capabilities — the differences are under the hood (PHP 8.4 runtime, hardened defaults) and in the five added built-in apps.
EFAdrive runs on PHP 8.4, taking full advantage of JIT compilation, fibers, and years of runtime performance improvements. Combined with updated dependencies and a leaner codebase, you get a faster, more responsive file sharing platform.
EFAdrive maintains full compatibility with the protocols and integrations you already depend on. From CRM connectivity to standard sync clients, everything works out of the box — no reconfiguration needed.
EFAdrive ships with five custom apps as part of the standard install — not optional add-ons. Four are security apps that vanilla ownCloud expects you to bolt on yourself; the fifth is a deeper SuiteCRM integration for teams already running it.
Hardware-key and biometric two-factor sign-in built on WebAuthn / FIDO2. Works with YubiKey and other roaming security keys, plus Touch ID and Windows Hello. Phishing-resistant MFA with no third-party dependency.
Sign-in is protected by TOTP (time-based one-time password) two-factor authentication. Compatible with Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, and any other RFC 6238 TOTP app. Enrolment is per-user from account settings.
Failed login attempts are reported to the host's fail2ban service, which automatically bans offending IPs at the firewall level. An admin panel inside EFAdrive shows currently banned IPs, lets administrators tune ban duration and thresholds, and supports manual ban/unban actions.
All uploads are scanned with ClamAV or any ICAP-compliant antivirus appliance. Infected files are quarantined, logged, or rejected based on admin policy. Background scanning of existing files is also supported for periodic re-scans against updated signatures.
Based on the open-source owncloud/files_antivirus project, licensed under AGPL-3.0.
Connects EFAdrive to SuiteCRM and creates a folder under /CRM/ for every account in the CRM, keeping document storage organized around the same accounts your sales and support teams already work with. Useful for businesses that already run SuiteCRM and want their files structured to match.
/CRM/Your defense-in-depth backstop against ransomware, hardware failure, and accidental deletion.
Automated off-site backup of user data, database, and config to S3-compatible object storage (AWS, Backblaze B2, and compatible). Point-in-time restore down to a single user's files, with configurable retention. Your defense-in-depth backstop against ransomware, hardware failure, and accidental deletion.
Automatic enforcement of data-retention rules, with optional pruning of empty folders.
Off-site backup is also available as a fully managed service — see Managed Off-Site Backup.
EFAdrive preserves your data, users, and workflow. Here's what changes under the hood.
Migrating to Nextcloud, ownCloud Infinite Scale, or another platform means starting over. EFAdrive doesn't.
