Project overview

Situation: FileCloud needed to enhance its DRM capabilities to address customer demands for a more intuitive and secure method of sharing and previewing sensitive documents directly within a web browser. The existing DRM solution required a client application, leading to a cumbersome and non-intuitive user experience. Additionally, the need for stronger protection against unauthorized sharing and access was paramount for clients in publishing, banking, government, and military sectors.
