[H2] How Nira Works
Nira integrates with multiple cloud file applications, enabling you to view and manage thousands of access permissions in one transparent interface.

Get visibility
View and filter all access permissions and security risks.

[H2] File sharing apps conceal numerous data security risks
Collaboration is as simple as sending a link. Oversharing spreads company information across employees and external parties. Managing access becomes a full-time job.
When you don’t know who has access…

Internal sharing
Getting organization-wide visibility into access permissions is impossible.

Third-party access
Outside users can access sensitive data until their accounts are manually audited.

Public links
Anyone with the URL can access files or Sharepoint pages until public links are discovered.

Employee offboarding
Standard offboarding processes and tools don’t scrub personal account access.

Downloads and copying
Both employees and third parties freely copy data onto their devices without detection.

Inbound documents
There is no way to audit and evaluate inbound information risk.

[H2] Unmatched visibility and control, with a fraction of the resources
IT teams of all sizes use Nira to manage and secure their most valuable cloud documents.
