Document Governance

Protect sensitive content across storage, email, and messaging. Aguardic scans files, emails, and messages for policy violations — automatically.

Sensitive Data Lives Everywhere. Nobody's Watching.

Documents, emails, and messages contain your most sensitive information. But governance stops at the application layer — leaving storage, inboxes, and chat channels ungoverned.

Confidential documents are shared with external parties without review
PII and PHI sit in cloud storage with no access controls or monitoring
Email attachments bypass DLP tools and reach unintended recipients
Slack and Teams messages contain sensitive data with no audit trail

Why Traditional DLP Doesn't Work

DLP tools rely on pattern matching — they miss context-dependent violations
Rules are binary (allow/block) with no nuance for business context
Coverage gaps across storage, email, and messaging platforms
No audit trail connecting violations to specific compliance requirements

Document governance requires understanding — not just keyword scanning.

How Aguardic Governs Documents

Monitor files, emails, and messages across every platform. Define what's sensitive, enforce policies automatically, and prove compliance.

1

Define document policies

Write rules for PII detection, sharing restrictions, classification requirements, and retention policies.

2

Scan across all platforms

Aguardic monitors files in Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive, plus emails and messages in Gmail, Outlook, Slack, and Teams.

3

Enforce with quarantine, restrict, or monitor

Move files to quarantine folders, restrict sharing permissions, or silently log for compliance review.

4

Log everything for compliance

Every scan is recorded with the file, matched policy, and action taken — ready for audit.

Example Rules

Real rules teams enforce across documents, emails, and messages. Start with these or write your own.

Quarantine files containing Social Security numbers or government IDs

PII

Block external sharing of documents marked confidential

Access Control

Flag emails with patient health information sent to personal addresses

HIPAA

Detect credit card numbers in Slack messages and alert compliance

PCI

Restrict sharing of legal contracts with users outside the organization

Legal

Flag documents without required classification labels

Classification

Block email attachments containing unredacted financial reports

Finance

Monitor Dropbox folders for files exceeding retention periods

Retention

What Happens When a Rule Triggers

Automated enforcement across every platform. Files, emails, and messages are handled consistently.

File quarantined

Violating files are moved to a dedicated quarantine folder in Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive — removed from shared access.

Sharing restricted

External sharing permissions are revoked automatically. Internal access is preserved while compliance reviews the violation.

Team notified

Compliance officers and data owners receive alerts via email, Slack, or webhook with full context.

Evidence logged for audit

Every scan is recorded — file path, matched policy, action taken, and timestamp — for compliance reporting.
