Abstract:

Disclosed are embodiments to manage modifications to a document such that the document conforms to requirements of a label. In some aspects, input assigning a label to a document is received. The label indicates requirements for the document. For example, the label marks the document as confidential, and requires the document to be encrypted when leaving a secure environment. The label may include additional requirements, such as particular watermarking or other content modifications to the document based on the confidential label. A device may be capable of modifying the document such that it satisfies only a subset of the label's requirements. The device then generates a message indicating a gap between the label's requirements and the state of the document, and sends the message to a network service. The network service is configured to augment the document as specified by the additional requirements indicated in the message.
