Optimal security level for sharing files

Meets the security and control requirements of the IT department

The typical "multi-department" structure and environment of SMEs, particularly large corporations, raises new issues:

  • The management of department-specific projects, with their own members of staff and external contacts.
  • The presence of an IT department that wants to delegate daily administration of a file sharing platform, whilst retaining overall supervision of it.
  • The ability to set rules regarding security and file sharing within the company.

To respond to this brief, iExtranet Enterprise offers:

Une approche "multi-gestionnaires"


iExtranet Enterprise enables every department (marketing, communication, research and development etc.) to have its own file-sharing platform, which it manages completely autonomously on a day-to-day basis. Each administrator is allocated an amount of disk space and an address book, and each department has its own traceability.

A supervision control panel designed for the IT department


The iExtranet Enterprise online file-sharing and collaboration solution includes a supervision control panel enabling the IT department to delegate day-to-day management of the online file-sharing platform to departmental administrators, whilst retaining overall control. 
This supervision covers a number of functionalities, including:

  • Creating administrators and management of their allocated file sharing space
  • Traceability, in order to have an overview of each action performed by users of the online file-sharing platform (connections, downloads, file postings etc.)

A customised security policy

Each company has its own specific security rules for file sharing, which is why iExtranet Enterprise offers a range of features allowing IT departments complete freedom to set their own file sharing and security rules:

  • A file filter which filters files according to their extension: for example, the IT department could ban all .mp3 files from being shared with a single click.
  • An IP address filter
  • Password management: does the company set precise rules regarding password use? iExtranet Enterprise enables companies to determine the character types to be included in user passwords, the number of characters, the number of times an incorrect password may be entered, etc.
