NextLabs SkyDRM provides persistent protection for digital information throughout its lifecycle- whether files are at rest, in use, or being shared. Through attribute-based policies, SkyDRM dynamically controls access to files based on who is accessing them and the applicable policy, helping organizations maintain control over how sensitive information is used and shared.
With support for a wide range of file types and access across devices, applications, cloud and on-premises environments, SkyDRM enables organizations to collaborate securely while keeping information protected wherever it goes.
Why Use SkyDRM?
Protect Critical Files Wherever They Go
Protect and monitor business-critical documents like intellectual property and product designs from unintended sharing and wrongful disclosure. SkyDRM provides the following capabilities to help you protect, control, and monitor your files:
- Persistent protection for your files: SkyDRM uses Digital Rights Management and Dynamic Authorization technology to protect files and enable secure sharing. Protection stays with the document, regardless of where it’s stored or who it’s shared with: inside or outside your network, on file servers, or in the cloud.
- Monitor, remediate, and control sharing: Determine whether your file can be accessed, viewed, edited, printed, or shared. Apply flexible protection actions, such as encryption, access restrictions and visual markings. Grant permission to re-share on the file to prevent unauthorized forwarding or distribution.
- Gain visibility and control: Apply centrally- managed policies to gain more control over critical files, track them and revoke access if necessary. Learn what is happening with your files with activity log and monitor policy violations. SkyDRM records information such as file activity, device type and ID, location, time, user action, etc.
