JCIFS Alternative – Visuality Systems releases Java SMB3 client

YOKNEAM, Israel

Visuality Systems has taken the initiative to develop and provide Java developers with the latest and up-to-date implementation of the Microsoft SMB file sharing connectivity, jNQ™. Written in pure Java, jNQ™ is a client software library, which is available through its API and works in any Java environment starting from 1.5. For nearly 2 decades the open source JCIFS version supporting SMB1 and developed by Chris Hertel was the industry de facto JAVA SMB standard utilized by thousands of entities. jNQ™ allows secured file sharing over the encrypted SMB 3.1.1 version.

Based in Israel, Visuality Systems focuses on bringing SMB connectivity to the Microsoft eco-system in the Embedded and Storage markets. The company offers server and client SMBv3.1.1 implementations for virtually any non-Windows operating system written in C and Java, supporting the latest Microsoft SMB dialects.

Tal Widerman, Marketing Manager at Visuality Systems, explains: “jNQ™ continues the SMB line of Visuality Systems products represented by YNQ™, NQ™ Storage and NQ™ for iOS. The new SMB stack will bring the Java embedded space closer to Windows-based machines by allowing a seamless integration of the Microsoft latest SMB specifications.”

The drive to develop the new Java solution has come from perceived demand by developers to progress to a protected SMB implementation following the WannaCry and Petya cyber-attacks. jNQ™ prevents such malicious attacks by means of Message signing, Encryption, Active Directory authentication, Kerberos authentication and Pre-logon integrity.

“To increase the security of computer networks and devices across the world, moving from SMBv1 towards SMBv3.x is a must”, said Ned Pyle, Principal Program Manager, Microsoft Windows Server High Availability and Storage group at Microsoft Corp. “Microsoft is very pleased with Visuality Systems’ support of the non-Windows community, and welcome the release of its jNQ product, an SMBv3.x solution long awaited by the Java community.”
