The human knowhow stretches beyond all conceivable limits, but at the same time, it still doesn’t touch on anything more valuable than that ability to grow on a consistent basis. This progressive approach, on our part, has already got the world to hit upon some huge milestones, with technology appearing as a major member of the stated group. The reason why we hold technology in such a high regard is, by and large, predicated upon its skill-set, which guided us towards a reality that nobody could have ever imagined otherwise. Nevertheless, if we look up close for a second, it will become clear how the whole runner was also very much inspired from the way we applied those skills across a real world environment. The latter component was, in fact, what gave the creation a spectrum-wide presence and made it the ultimate centerpiece of every horizon. Now, having such a powerful tool run the show did expand our experience in many different years, but even after reaching so far ahead, this prodigious concept called technology will somehow keep on delivering the right goods. The same has grown to become a lot more evident in recent times, and assuming one new GRC-themed pans out just like we envision, it will only propel that trend towards greater heights over the near future and beyond.
FileCloud, a leader in content governance and collaboration for unstructured data, has officially announced the launch of new product advancements that are all conceived to help customers meet enterprise data protection requirements. According to certain reports, the stated advancements happen to be highlighted by two notable upgrades around the FileCloud’s content classification solution i.e. Visual No-Code Editor and AI-powered classifier. Starting from the former, the visual no-code editor actually arrives with a simulation mode in toe, a mode which allows classification rules to be tested against sample data before being rolled out to production. As for what they do together, both the editor and its simulation mode simplify the complex task of constructing and validating the rules against an environment and unique data sets that may extend beyond standard PII. Such simplicity, like anyone could guess, goes a long way to ensure greater accuracy in regards to classification and attachment of the appropriate metadata. Once that is covered, the whole arrangement eventually gets down to automatically applying the relevant policies and controls. Moving on to our second piece of upgrade here, FileCloud’s AI-powered classifier basically makes it possible for customers to choose FileCloud to leverage OpenAI as a classifier. To talk about it on a slightly deeper level, the AI-powered classifier brings automated organization and data management to content sets, and it does so while simultaneously delivering at your disposal a set of specialized cloud services. This translates to a simple and accessible setup, as well as the prospect of using natural language to define how content should be classified and tagged when implemented. Another major detail regarding this product is how it also plans on extending support over time for more large language models (LLMs), including models deployed in private clouds.
Having touched on the crux of FileCloud’s latest move, we now must also get into its brand-new compliance center. The stated compliance center is conceived to supply configuration monitoring templates that compare content access and other key settings within the deployment. This it does against the articles of common compliance standards such as GDPR, HIPAA, and ITAR. Complimenting the same is how the given center has been expanded to include templates for NIST 800-171, along with Saudi Arabia Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL). Not just that, it also removes blockers for US Federal agencies and contractors that handle CUI (controlled unclassified information) as defined in Executive Order 13526, Rounding things up are these DRM-protected share links. Now, digital rights management isn’t exactly a new concept for FileCloud’s solution, considering it already allows users to share confidential content, and at the same time, prevent unauthorized actions such as screenshots and reproduction. However, up until now, the only ways to achieve this within FileCloud and other similar solutions was to leverage a multi-step process that included the manual generation of an access key, a specialized download, and an extra client that the recipient needed to install. To streamline the entire operation, FileCloud has introduced a simplistic approach, which involves DRM-protected weblinks that can be generated with just one click. Once generated, the new web-based DRM capability will provide similar protection as the client-based method, with controls around number of access attempts and expiry, all while also preventing the full content from ever being locally downloaded by the receiving party.
“FileCloud makes it simple for enterprise organizations to meet their content governance, privacy and compliance requirements, specifically when there are complex objectives in hybrid environments,” said Jason Dover, Chief Product Officer at FileCloud. “Our goal is to create solutions that enable customers to balance risk management with easy and frictionless content collaboration inside and outside their firewall boundaries. Our recent product enhancements are focused on doing just that, while also putting powerful new capabilities in the hands of CIOs to support organizational and IT objectives.”
Founded in 2016, FileCloud has risen up on the back of its industry-first Zero Trust File Sharing℠, compliance, data leak protection, retention, and digital rights management system. In practice, this system delivers cutting-edge file sharing, sync, and mobile access capabilities across public, private, as well hybrid clouds. The company’s excellence in what it does can be fully understood once you consider how it has served, till date, over three thousand enterprises, and a total of more than one million users. These customers notably include names like CMS, NASA, US Army Corps of Engineers, Columbus Regional Health, Toyota, and many other heavyweights. Currently present in 90+ countries, FileCloud’s case is also made by the fact that it has now received the Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice Distinction for five years in a row.
