With the Web File Manager (short: WebFiler), university members within and outside the campus can access the data drives of the Jade University network system of computers. This happens via webbrowser and a secured and encrypted connection. The web access is thought to look into and download data. It offers merely a restricted amount of comfort.

The Web File Manager can be reached under the following link: WebFiler
