1. A method of managing files, comprising:
- receiving, at a file management system, a policy to be applied with respect to one or more of a file included in a synchronization set and an endpoint associated with the synchronization set; and
ensuring compliance with the policy across a plurality of heterogeneous endpoints associated with the synchronization set by determining the plurality of heterogeneous endpoints based at least in part on the policy and propagating the policy to one or more of the heterogeneous endpoints, wherein each of the one or more endpoints is configured to enforce at the endpoint policies received from the file management system.

Abstract
Techniques to enforce policies with respect to managed files and/or endpoints are disclosed. A policy to be applied with respect to one or more files included in a synchronization set and/or an endpoint associated with the synchronization set is received. Compliance with the policy is ensured across a plurality of heterogeneous endpoints associated with the synchronization set.

16. A file management system, comprising:
-
a processor configured to; receive a policy to be applied with respect to one or more of a file included in a synchronization set and an endpoint associated with the synchronization set; and ensure compliance with the policy across a plurality of heterogeneous endpoints associated with the synchronization by determining the plurality of heterogeneous endpoints based at least in part on the policy and propagating the policy to one or more of the heterogeneous endpoints, wherein each of the one or more endpoints is configured to enforce at the endpoint policies received from the file management system; and a memory or other storage device coupled to the processor and configured to store the policy. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. A computer program product to manage files, the computer program product being embodied in a tangible, non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
-
receiving a policy to be applied with respect to one or more of a file included in a synchronization set and an endpoint associated with the synchronization set; and ensuring compliance with the policy across a plurality of heterogeneous endpoints associated with the synchronization set by determining the plurality of heterogeneous endpoints based at least in part on the policy and propagating the policy to one or more of the heterogeneous endpoints, wherein each of the one or more endpoints is configured to enforce at the endpoint policies received from the file management system.
