By providing off the shelf integrations and a published SDK, Workshare allows customers to extend and leverage their existing and future content compliance investments.

Workshare's open program allows third parties to integrate their compliance and security products directly with Workshare Protect.

In addition, this allows for the auditing and reporting on both policy triggers and application of actions. This intelligent security design provides the user with active involvement in risk mitigation--which then in turn increases policy compliance and product utilization and creates the ability for flexibility in corporate policy design and enforcement.
