Abstract

Systems and methods for data sharing and transaction processing for high security documents are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method may include (1) at least one computer processor verifying that a sender of a document is authorized to send the document; (2) the at least one computer processor verifying that a receiver of the document is authorized to receive the document; (3) the at least one computer processor identifying at least one restriction to associate with the document; and (4) the at least one computer processor associating the at least one restriction with the document.

Claims

1. A method for electronic document management, comprising:

at least one computer processor at an electronic document management server receiving an identification of an electronic document to be sent, an identification of a sender to send the document, and an identification of a receiver to receive the document;

based on the identification of the electronic document and the identification of the sender, the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server verifying that a sender of the electronic document is authorized to send the electronic document;

based on the identification of the electronic document and the identification of the receiver, the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server verifying that a receiver of the electronic document is authorized to receive the electronic document;

the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server identifying at least one dynamic receiver authentication restriction to associate with the electronic document, the at least one dynamic receiver authentication restriction changing from a first receiver authentication level to a second receiver authentication level based on an event;

the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server associating the at least one dynamic restriction with the electronic document; and

the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server sending the electronic document with the at least one dynamic receiver authentication restriction to a receiving device associated with the receiver.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

the at least one computer processor verifying that transmission of the electronic document is authorized;

the at least one computer processor verifying that a device that provided the identification of the electronic document to be sent, the identification of a sender, and the identification of a receiver to the electronic document management system is authorized to request that the electronic document be sent; and

the at least one computer processor verifying that the receiving device is authorized to receive the electronic document.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of verifying that transmission of the electronic document is authorized comprises:

the at least one computer processor identifying any restrictions on the transmission of the electronic document.

4. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of verifying that transmission of the electronic document is authorized is based on at least one of a size of the electronic document, a type of the electronic document, a level of security for the electronic document, and a physical location of the electronic document.

5. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of verifying that the sending device is authorized to send the electronic document comprises:

the at least one computer processor verifying that the sending device is associated with the sender.

6. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of verifying that the receiving device is authorized to receive the electronic document comprises:

the at least one computer processor verifying that the receiving device is associated with the receiver.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of verifying that a sender of the electronic document is authorized to send the electronic document comprises:

the at least one computer processor checking an authorization table to see if the sender is authorized to send the electronic document.

8. The method of claim 1, further comprising

the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server identifying a document restriction to associate with the electronic document;

the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server associating the document restriction with the electronic document; and

the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management server sending the electronic document with the document restriction to the receiving device;

wherein the document restriction comprises at least one of a transmission restriction, a printing restriction, an access restriction, a geographical restriction, and a document expiration.

9. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

at least one computer processor on the receiving device enforcing the dynamic receiver authentication restriction.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management system retrieves, using the identification of the document, at least one of a size of the electronic document, a type of electronic document, and a physical location of the electronic document to verify that the sender of the electronic document is authorized to send the electronic document.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management system retrieves, using the identification of the document, a level of security of the electronic document to verify that the sender of the electronic document is authorized to send the electronic document.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management system retrieves, using the identification of the document, at least one of a size of the electronic document, a type of electronic document, and a physical location of the electronic document to verify that the receiver of the electronic document is authorized to receive the electronic document.

13. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one computer processor at the electronic document management system retrieves, using the identification of the document, a level of security of the electronic document to verify that the receiver of the electronic document is authorized to receive the electronic document.

14. The method of claim 1, wherein the event is a transaction.

15. The method of claim 1, wherein the event is based on the passage of time.

16. A method for electronic document management, comprising:

receiving, at a sending electronic device, a request to send an electronic document to a receiving electronic device;

at least one computer processor at the sending electronic device to send the electronic document requesting authorization from a server to send the electronic document to a receiving electronic device to receive the electronic document, the request comprising an identification of the receiving electronic device and an identification of the electronic document;

receiving, at the sending electronic device, authorization from a server to send the electronic document to the receiving electronic device based on the identification of the receiving electronic device and the identification of the electronic document; and

the at least one computer processor at the sending electronic device sending the electronic document with at least one dynamic receiver authentication restriction to the receiving electronic device, the at least one dynamic receiver authentication restriction changing from a first receiver authentication level to a second receiver authentication level based on an event.

17. The method of claim 16, further comprising:

the at least one computer processor establishing a communication link with a receiving electronic device.

18. The method of claim 17, wherein the communication link is a direct communication link between the sending receiving device and the receiving electronic device.

19. The method of claim 17, further comprising:

the at least one computer processor receiving at least one receiver authentication restriction to associate with the electronic document; and

the at least one computer processor associating the at least one dynamic receiver authentication restriction with the electronic document.
