Secure Link Sharing in M365 with eSHARE Collaborate

In today’s Microsoft 365 (M365) workplace, content isn’t just created in Word or Excel—it’s created, stored, and shared through cloud-based applications. Files are accessed via links, enabling seamless collaboration across devices, teams, and geographies. But without the right safeguards, link sharing can become a major security risk.

eSHARE Collaborate enhances M365 with Trusted Collaboration—offering powerful tools that make sharing via links easy, secure, and compliant.

Why Secure Link Sharing in M365 Matters

Whether you're sharing a project plan with a colleague, product specs with a contractor, or a contract with a client, links are the gateway to sensitive data. Microsoft provides built-in security features in M365, but they often lack the flexibility and context needed for large enterprises.

eSHARE’s Trusted Collaboration enhances these capabilities by adding automated policy enforcement, user-friendly guardrails, and real-time guidance—removing the guesswork from secure collaboration.

Enforce Link Governance in M365

M365 allows you to share files via links, but not all links are equal. eSHARE ensures users follow compliant practices every time they share:

⇥ Prevent or require justification for using broad access options like “Anyone with the link” or “People in your organization.”

⇥ Enforce the use of “Specific people” links or automatically convert shared links to named recipients.

⇥ Block access for risky users using inputs from DLP, identity policies, or content classification systems.

Use Sensitivity Labels to Drive Governance

With Microsoft Purview, sensitivity labels classify content like “Confidential” or “Restricted.” These labels ensure persistent protection, even outside your organization.

eSHARE Govern builds on this by applying risk-based policies to link sharing—automatically or via the data owner. This ensures accountability, compliance, and business continuity, without blocking productivity.

Enable Secure External Collaboration—Without Guest Accounts

External collaboration is a key strength of M365, but managing guest accounts is time-consuming and often leads to noncompliant workarounds.

eSHARE Collaborate eliminates the need for guest accounts. It lets data owners securely share content with external users—directly from Teams, OneDrive, or SharePoint—without IT intervention. Access, edit, and download rights are defined at the time of sharing, putting control in the hands of those who know the content best.

Make Link Sharing Secure, Seamless, and Scalable

Secure link sharing in M365 doesn’t need to be a trade-off between control and productivity. With eSHARE Collaborate, your teams get a secure, compliant, and user-friendly way to share content—internally or externally.
