    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: Methods, systems, and computer program products for a content management system. Embodiments operate within or in conjunction with such a content management system. The content management system stores content objects for access by various collaborators, including extra-system collaborators. A user of the content management system configures extra-enterprise shared link URLs that permit the extra-system collaborators to access shared content objects over an Internet connection. A shared link event graph data structure is formed based on access requests over the extra-enterprise shared link URLs. An interactive user interface module is generated by processing a shared link report query over the shared link event graph data structure to select a subject set of the extra-enterprise shared link URLs, and to generate a data set of the interactive user interface module based at least in part on results from the query. A user interacts with the interactive user interface module to generate insights.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for electronic signature systems. Multiple components are operatively interconnected to carry out operations for securing e-signatures applied to content objects. A data processing system that interacts with user devices over a network that carries e-signature events raised by the user devices is configured to implement a content management system (CMS) that maintains a single CMS e-signature object within an object storage repository. The single CMS e-signature object is representative of multiple different versions or renditions of CMS objects. Upon an e-sign event, the data processing system modifies the single CMS e-signature object. Human cognition is aided by presentation of two different and independently operable graphical user interface (GUI) renderings, wherein a first rendering presents the single CMS e-signature object and wherein a second rendering displays at least some of the multiple different versions or renditions or properties that constituent the single CMS e-signature object.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for folder synchronization and offline synchronization via a mobile platform in a web-based collaboration environment are disclosed. One embodiment includes synchronizing user selected folders and/or sub-folders via the mobile platform, using portable devices including smart phones and tablets using any mobile operating system to allow offline access. Child or sub-folders of the selected folders and/or sub-folders are automatically detected and synchronized for offline access. Any change or new content detected on the client side or on the server side is also synchronized such that the selected folders and/or sub-folders on the client and server sides are up to date.

    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: Content object operations over content objects of a content management system are prioritized to be performed immediately, or at a later time. The immediate scheduling of an operation is determined by policies, rules, and/or predictive model outcomes. The determination for later time scheduling is based on analysis of a history of events on content objects. If the content object operation is deemed to be at least potentially delayable to a later time, then a scheduling model is consulted to determine an urgency of performing the content object operation on the content object. The urgency value resulting from consulting the scheduling model is combined with then-current resource availability to determine a timeframe for performance of the content object operation on the content object relative to other entries in a continuously updated list of to-be-performed operations. The performance of the content object operation on the content object is initiated in due course.

    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for recommendation systems. Embodiments commence by gathering a set of pathnames that refer to content objects of a collaboration system. A tokenizer converts at least some of the pathnames into vectors. The vectors comprise hierarchical path components such as folder names or file names, which vectors are labeled with an indication as to whether or not the folder or file referred to in a particular vector had been clicked on by one or more users. Some portion of the labeled vectors are used to train a predictive model. Collaboration recommendations may be generated that pertain to security-related recommendations.
