Abstract: Disclosed are mechanisms that enable secure file sharing between applications using an operating system framework. In some examples, an extension map is received by a client device. The extension map relates a file extension to an alias file extension. A management software development kit (SDK) is used by an application. The management SDK identifies that the application originates a file comprising the file extension, stores the file as an extension-aliased file by changing its file extension to the alias file extension according to the extension map. The extension-aliased file is transferred to a recipient application using a file sharing utility of an operating system of the client device.
