Accellion, Inc., provider of the leading governance platform for sending, receiving, and sharing encrypted information, today announced secure, compliant, and convenient information sharing for enterprises using Google Drive.
With Accellion, enterprise G Suite users send, receive, and share confidential files externally with complete compliance and authentication. Accellion lets organizations control all external file exchanges through a single governance platform, no matter what the data source, to mitigate the risk of a data leak or access by unauthenticated users.
As part of the Google Cloud Technology Partner Program, the Accellion plugin for Google Drive lets security-first organizations:
- Send confidential documents externally via secure folders and secure email
- Centralize external sharing governance to ensure sensitive files stay private
- Automatically convert shared Google Docs to Microsoft Office files and vice versa
- Share Google Docs using their corporate authentication with recipients’ business email accounts outside the organization
- Consolidate compliance reporting and use log data to create real-time visualizations into integrated SIEM products
Accellion also enables enterprise G Suite users to convert their shared Google Docs to Microsoft files to enhance collaboration with external partners. Accellion allows G Suite users to bridge their corporate Google world with the corporate Microsoft world while keeping their confidential documents secure and collaboration compliant. G Suite users now have the best of both worlds: collaborative cloud editing internally and compliant, industry-standard Office file sharing externally.
“With Accellion, G Suite users have a single governance platform that reduces the risk of inadvertently exposing sensitive information,” said Yaron Galant, chief product officer with Accellion. “It’s now very simple for G Suite users to securely share Google Docs containing sensitive data outside of their organization through systems like Microsoft, Salesforce, and Oracle.”
