CloudCodes uses two different approaches to bring control to Google Drive.

  • Agent-based
  • Agentless

Agent-Based Approach

An agent-based approach, CloudCodes agent, is installed on the end-user machine. The agent acts as a web proxy, i.e., the web traffic of applications that need to be monitored are passed through the agent. Other traffic can be redirected directly to the web without passing through the agent. The agent doesn’t store any content that it inspects. The following features are provided through the agent.

Sharing across OU

Sharing across OU:

this allows the IT to ensure documents across departments cannot be shared. E.g., the Finance department users cannot share documents with the operation team.

Delete

Delete:

the IT can track/block the deletion of documents. There are times when the user tries to delete the records intentionally/unintentionally. The materials are the assets of the organization.

External Sharing of documents:

the IT can control in real-time track/block sharing of documents with blacklisted domains such as personal domains or competitor domains etc-etc.
