Data Classification at ownCloud works with the system of tagging.<\/p>\n
Tagging of documents in ownCloud<\/h2>\n
Many organizations use software that regulates the confidentiality of certain files, but is only partially compatible with company-wide file sharing systems, for example, Microsoft Azure Information Protection and NovaPath allow files to be labeled with certain levels of confidentiality.<\/p>\n
Document Classification in ownCloud is carried out through various kinds of tags:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Manual tagging (performed by users), for example, invisible files (only by admins), filter files etc.<\/li>\n
- Automated tagging based on user or file properties<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\u2013 Users<\/p>\n
\u2013 File type, size etc.<\/p>\n

- Automated tagging based on document metadata<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

<\/p>\nDocument Classification protects data<\/h2>\n
Enterprises all over the world have been facing an increasing threat of data loss and data breach<\/a>. Very often, human errors, lack of user awareness about data security, negligence and hacking attempts are the factors that expose organizations to cybercrimes, resulting in disastrous losses for the companies in terms of time, finances and goodwill.<\/p>\n
However, in the modern workplace, it is also exceedingly important that remote teams are able to efficiently collaborate and exchange information with other users both inside and <\/span><\/span>outside the organizational infrastructure, <\/span><\/span>across all devices and regardless of <\/span><\/span>geographical boundaries.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
This is where document classification steps in. In conjunction with other established <\/span><\/span>security features (for example, File Firewall), far-<\/span><\/span>
reaching, automated measures can be <\/span><\/span>taken to provide the most comprehensive <\/span><\/span>protection for corporate data to date. <\/span><\/span>With this method, it is easy for enterprises to develop policies and guidelines for each security level; for example, documents tagged as Confidential might not be shared externally, accessed by public links or uploaded to ownCloud at all.<\/p>\nFile-access mechanisms<\/strong> can be specified that automatically apply when users attempt to perform restricted actions (for example, creating public links or access by unauthorized users). This ensures that users are able to collaborate on confidential documents in a highly secure way.<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\u201cBy classifying confidential documents and processing them in accordance with the relevant guidelines, our customers can significantly minimize the risk of data privacy violations and guarantee security and control at all times \u2013 not only within companies but also in cooperation with customers and partners\u201d, emphasizes Holger Dyroff, COO at ownCloud.<\/strong><\/div><\/div><\/h3>\nownCloud Document Classification is particularly recommended if your enterprise works with valuable and\/or sensitive data, for example, financial data, contracts, blueprints, and so on.<\/p>\n
ownCloud Document Classification is GDPR-compliant<\/h2>\n
The feature was developed in cooperation with a major German automotive supplier and represents an essential component for complying with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and standards such as ISO 27001\/2, which is recommended by the German Association of the Automotive Industry.<\/p>\n
In combination with the proven File Firewall and Workflow extensions, ownCloud offers a highly comprehensive protection for company data and enables enterprise file sharing even in industries that have strict regulations in place.<\/p>\n
Use Case from the automotive <\/span><\/span>industry<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n
Automotive suppliers must ensure <\/span><\/span>compliance with standards such as <\/span><\/span>ISO 27001\/2, as the handling of data <\/span><\/span>in accordance with this standard is an <\/span><\/span>industry-wide compliance requirement for <\/span><\/span>cooperation with automobile manufacturers, <\/span><\/span>as recommended by the German Association <\/span><\/span>
of the Automotive Industry (VDA). The <\/span><\/span>classification of confidential documents <\/span><\/span>and their processing in accordance with <\/span><\/span>the guidelines is a central component for <\/span><\/span>obtaining the corresponding certification.<\/span><\/span>With the Document Classification extension <\/span><\/span>in ownCloud, automotive suppliers can <\/span><\/span>effectively minimize the risk of data <\/span><\/span>privacy violations. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nSecurity and control are guaranteed at all times – both within their <\/span>own value chain and in cooperation with <\/span>customers and partners. This means that the <\/span>requirements for digital collaboration can be <\/span>fulfilled across company boundaries. <\/span>In conjunction with other established <\/span>security features (e.g. File Firewall), far-<\/span>reaching, automated measures can also be <\/span>taken to provide the most comprehensive <\/span>protection for corporate data to date. Thus, <\/span>even organizations in which the use of the <\/span>technology was previously not possible due to the high security requirements <\/span>benefit from the productivity increase of the <\/span>collaboration platform.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
