In today’s digital-first business environment, safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining robust session security are paramount. FileOrbis addresses these critical needs with its comprehensive secure session management features, ensuring that user sessions are both secure and efficient. This suite of tools is specifically designed to handle various security challenges faced by enterprises, enhancing protection against unauthorized access and potential security threats.

General Usage of FileOrbis in the Enterprise

FileOrbis is designed to be a central hub for all file management needs, catering to the complex demands of contemporary enterprises. It facilitates a secure and organized environment for storing, sharing, and managing documents, with easy access controls and tracking capabilities that ensure only authorized users can access sensitive information. With FileOrbis, enterprises can effortlessly scale their file management operations, accommodate growing data volumes, and enhance team collaboration, regardless of the geographical spread of their workforce.

Single Session for  Users

FileOrbis enhances security by enforcing a policy that allows only a single session per user at any given time. This feature prevents multiple logins from different devices under the same user credentials, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorized access and ensuring that each user’s session remains private and secure.

Customizable Session Rules for Diverse Client Interfaces and APIs

Understanding that different applications may require unique security measures, FileOrbis offers the flexibility to apply separate session rules based on the client interface being used. Whether it’s MS Office, MS Outlook, Webex, or other API integrations, administrators can set distinct session policies that cater to the security needs of each application. This tailored approach not only enhances security but also optimizes the user experience across various platforms.

Anti-Forgery Token Validation

To combat cross-site request forgery (CSRF), FileOrbis implements anti-forgery token validation. This security measure ensures that each client request is accompanied by a unique token, which must be validated by the server before any action can be taken. This validation process is crucial for preventing malicious sites from performing unauthorized actions on behalf of authenticated users.

Robust CAPTCHA Integration to Thwart Automated Attacks

To enhance security and protect against automated threats, FileOrbis incorporates CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) within its session management protocols. This feature plays a crucial role in preventing bot-based attacks and unauthorized automated scripts from compromising user sessions. By requiring users to complete a CAPTCHA challenge before login or other sensitive operations, FileOrbis ensures that the entity interacting with the system is indeed human. This layer of security is particularly effective in mitigating risks associated with brute-force attacks and credential stuffing, adding an essential barrier to protect user accounts.

Enhanced Security with TOTP, SMS, and Email-Based 2FA Support

FileOrbis strengthens session security further by supporting multiple forms of two-factor authentication (2FA), including Time-Based One-Time Password (TOTP), SMS, and email-based verification methods. This multi-modal 2FA approach ensures that even if a user’s primary login credentials are compromised, unauthorized access can still be effectively blocked. Users are required to verify their identity through a secondary device or method, which significantly reduces the likelihood of unauthorized access. TOTP provides a constantly changing code that users generate on their personal devices, adding a dynamic layer of security. Meanwhile, SMS and email verifications offer user-friendly, accessible options that provide an additional security checkpoint. Together, these 2FA methods enforce a robust security posture, ensuring that critical resources and data are accessible only to authenticated users.

Brute Force Protection

FileOrbis protects against brute force attacks by limiting the number of failed login attempts a user can make. If the threshold is reached, FileOrbis can lock the user account or temporarily disable access, thus preventing attackers from guessing passwords. This feature is vital for defending against intrusion attempts that use common password cracking methods.

Controlled Access Interruption

In situations where security concerns arise, administrators have the capability to interrupt desired client access immediately. This means that if a breach or suspicious activity is detected, access can be swiftly revoked to mitigate any potential damage, providing a dynamic tool to manage and respond to threats in real-time.

Automatic Closure Based on AD User Status

FileOrbis enhances session security by automatically closing user sessions based on their Active Directory (AD) status. If a user’s AD status is altered—due to employment termination or a change in role—FileOrbis immediately revokes access, ensuring that only current and authorized users can access corporate resources. This automatic synchronization with AD status is a critical safeguard that prevents ex-employees or unauthorized users from retaining access.

Conclusion: A Comprehensive Solution to Security Concerns

Each feature of FileOrbis’s secure session management is designed with stringent security requirements in mind, offering solutions to a wide array of security concerns that modern enterprises face. By implementing these robust measures, organizations can significantly enhance their security posture, ensuring that their data and resources are protected against both external and internal threats.

With FileOrbis, companies gain not just a tool for managing files but a comprehensive security partner that safeguards their information assets through meticulous session management. This commitment to security enables organizations to operate confidently and securely in a digital landscape that is constantly evolving and facing new challenges.
