Globalscape is providing Rackspace (News - Alert) (NYSE: RAX) customers more freedom to access and share their data no matter where life takes them. Globalscape (NYSE MKT: GSB) announced today the TappIn™ by Globalscape^® mobile file sharing solution's availability on the Rackspace Cloud Tools Marketplace.

"Rackspace customers look for flexibility and agility from an open cloud platform," said Ven Shanmugam, senior manager for corporate strategy at Rackspace.

We're excited to have TappIn available to our customers via the Cloud Tools Marketplace and we look forward to ongoing collaboration."

TappIn gives customers the ability to instantly access and securely share virtually all of their files, no matter where they're stored: on office and home computers, office servers, or OnTapp cloud storage.
