Security

Depend on tighter security to protect sensitive information.

A document management system is inherently the most secure way to store documents. A comprehensive system like PaperWise provides options that enable corporations to tailor the security to their needs. The goal is to provide document access privileges so each user can only see documents that are pertinent to his or her work. Security controlled in layers allows very precise control over who can and cannot access specific information. Compliance with the broad requirements of government regulations like HIPAA and Sarbanes Oxley demand a combination of many document management features.

• User login controls access at the database level and security limits access to individual department or functional databases.
• Limited access to specific features or functions like the ability to print, email or export any information from the system prevents sensitive corporate information from being sent to an outside destination.
• Restrictions can be applied to specific document classifications or types. This can make specific documents “invisible” to certain users while providing access to all documents for authorized users.
