ForumPass 7

ForumPass 7 is Exostar’s latest Collaboration Solution Release, based on Microsoft SharePoint 2016. ForumPass 7 includes improved security and many new features and capabilities that improve usability and provide seamless integration with Microsoft Office Applications.

ForumPass Defense

Exostar partnered with Seclore to create the ForumPass Defense application in order to comply with the NIST 800-171 requirements. While maintaining many of the features and functionality available in the standard ForumPass application, ForumPass Defense provides a secure, multi-factor authenticated environment, in the United States, and incorporates the Digital Rights Management (DRM) functionality to protect documents inside and outside of the environment.

Digital Rights Management

Digital Rights Management (DRM) adds a layer of security at the document level which protects document content from unauthorized access. DRM-protected documents are watermarked with the user’s name and the date/time the file is opened, and access and functionality in a DRM library is controlled by the ForumPass Permission groups. To learn more about ForumPass Defense and DRM, please see the Defense and Digital Rights Management page.
