collaboration suite

VNCfiles

The shared file core of the suite: one governed registry, one permission model and governance built in.

✓One file core for the whole suite
✓Sovereign by architecture: bytes, metadata, search and the assistant run in your cluster
✓Governance built in: classification, retention, legal hold and DLP flags
✓Permissions as grants in the suite directory
Overview

Your files, inside your walls, under your rules

One governed registry for every product, one login and one permission model. Files run entirely in your environment, with identity, organisation and folder rights delegated to the suite directory, and sharing governed by tracked links.

  • ✓One governed registry: a shared folder tree and metadata, with bytes in the shared object store
  • ✓Directory grants: folder rights are grants in the suite directory, resolved by nearest ancestor
  • ✓Governance built in: classification, retention, legal hold and DLP flags held with the record
  • ✓Governed sync and offline desktop, with an encrypted local store and a transactional outbox
  • ✓Hybrid search across the suite content index, and Ask your files with citations
  • ✓Shares with accountability: expiring, password-protected, capped and one-time links, with a per-link access log
Features & highlights

One governed registry

A shared folder tree and file metadata for every product, with one login and one permission model. The registry publishes file events to the suite event bus and file discovery to the suite content index.

Versioning and Trash

Every file keeps its versions, with restore, and a Trash holds deleted items for 30 days with restore or purge.

Safe by default

Uploads are virus-scanned, documents are content-extracted, and common file and office formats preview in-app. Files and folders carry a classification.

Search by meaning

Hybrid search, lexical plus semantic, across the whole suite content index, with results enriched by type, size and preview. Ask your files answers in natural language with citations.

Share with accountability

Share a file or folder with an expiring link, optional password, a download limit or a one-time link, and revoke. A per-link access log records every view, download and block, with time, IP and client.

Governance

Classification, retention policy, legal hold and DLP flags are held with the record. Folder rights are access grants in the suite directory, resolved by nearest ancestor, with no local permission table.

Governed sync

Sync spaces keep the object store in step with a synced volume, governed by a device and space grant matrix, with a sync console and one-click conflict resolution.

Offline desktop

A desktop client for macOS, Windows and Linux keeps an encrypted local store, a transactional outbox for offline read and write, conflict handling and local full-text search, with in-app single sign-on and auto-update.

Why it's different

The suite one file core

Every product reads and writes the same registry, so there are no per-app file silos.

Permissions that never drift

Grants live in the suite directory, not in the file app, so joiners, movers and leavers are handled once.

Sovereign by architecture

Bytes, metadata, search and the assistant run in your cluster; no presigned links leave it.

Governance and sharing together

Classification and legal hold sit on the same object you share with a tracked link.

Registry: shared folder tree and metadata, bytes in the shared object store · Rights: grants in the suite directory, resolved by nearest ancestor · Governance: classification, retention, legal hold, DLP flags · Clients: web and a desktop client for macOS, Windows and Linux
