AvePoint, a governance and compliance software solutions provider for next-generation social collaboration platforms, has announced the general availability of AvePoint Perimeter Service Pack (SP) 3. AvePoint Perimeter ensures that all business-critical SharePoint content is accessed by trusted users, on trusted deices, and within trusted locations.

With AvePoint Perimeter, organizations can now give users the freedom to choose how and with whom they want to collaborate—from external users to devices and locations—all while keeping sensitive digital assets in SharePoint secure.

New features include:

Burglar Alarm: With the new Burglar Alarm feature, organizations enhance content safety throughout SharePoint with suspicious behavior monitoring and customizable alerts based on administrator needs. Administrators are able to monitor and proactively react to the behavior of users engaging in suspicious activity within Perimeter portals, as well as the organization’s entire SharePoint environment. Activity monitoring capabilities include file sharing, authentication, logging in from non-authorized locations, and SharePoint content downloads.

Granular User Auditing: Daily User Tracking provides additional record keeping functionality with granular, exportable reports of SharePoint activities—including content access, sharing, and downloads—within a specified duration for individual SharePoint users. Administrators can now also track user activity no matter what operating system a user has—including iOS, Android or Windows Phone—in order to provide organizations with a comprehensive view of how all SharePoint content is being accessed. 

Windows Phone Support: Users can now use their Windows Phone for secure remote SharePoint access via Perimeter’s two-factor authentication functionality. Registered mobile devices serve as authentication tokens for access to content secured with location-based access policies.
