    Abstract: Securely acquiring and managing electronic-based signatures by a content management system. A content management system exposes content objects to a plurality of collaborators. Executable modules of the content management system implement an Internet-based interface that is configured to acquire electronic-based signatures from a user device. A particular user device is configured to access particular content objects over the Internet-based interface and to acquire an electronic-based signature corresponding to one or more of the particular content objects. When one or more conditions are detected that would at least potentially influence how the acquisition of the electronic-based signature is carried out, then one or more remediation actions are invoked. Various security-specific remediation actions address corresponding security vulnerabilities. Various document-specific remediation actions are determined based on the document conditions that had been detected. In some cases, a plurality of remediation actions are carried out to securely acquire electronic-based signatures from a user device.

    Abstract: A shared workflow operates over a plurality of execution environments associated with a content management system. A shared workflow is created in a first execution environment. The workflow is posted to a shared location. A particular workflow is selected from an exchange or other shared location and is thereafter configured to execute in a second execution environment. A computing module analyzes the workflow to identify environment-specific parameters. Based on a computer-generated recommendation emerging from the analysis, a user or a computing agent modifies the environment-specific parameter so as to configure the workflow prior to execution in the second execution environment. The first execution environment may correspond to a first department of an enterprise and the second execution environment may correspond to a second department of the same enterprise. Alternatively, the first execution environment may correspond to a first enterprise and the second execution environment may correspond to a second enterprise.

    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for managing workflows between multiple third-party systems. A content management system stores a workflow that operates over content objects by invoking third-party applications. The content management system invokes these third-party applications, and these applications make modifications to the progression of the workflows as the third-party applications carry-out their specific portions of the workflow. Upon receipt of a workflow variable value from a first third-party application, the content management system determines the semantics of the workflow variable value and caries out a next portion of the workflow. The content management system then invokes a further next portion of the workflow to be carried out by a second third-party application. Upon receipt of a workflow variable value from the second third-party application, the content management system determines the semantics of the workflow variable value to then carry out yet a further portion of the workflow.
