Abstract: In embodiments of the present invention improved capabilities are described for securely sharing computer data content that allows for the secure un-sharing of the content. The facility to un-share content may be implemented through a secure exchange server, where the content is being shared along with a secure protection feature that when altered results in the un-sharing of the content. This secure un-sharing facility may be used to securely share content beyond the secure protective facilities of an enterprise, out to users in other companies, into the public space, to users not intended to get the content, and the like, where the sender maintains control to access of the content no matter where or to who the content has been distributed. In this way, the secure sharing of content is made to be easy across corporate boundaries at the user level and at the individual document level.

Abstract: A method for granting an access to information includes electronically establishing, by at least one intermediary server, through a first authentication procedure at least one first client login authentication data which allows at least one client processor to access the at least one intermediary server, electronically receiving, by the at least one intermediary server, at least one second client login authentication data from at least one host server, wherein the at least one second client login authentication data is established by the at least one host server using a second authentication procedure, wherein the at least one second client login authentication data allows the at least one client processor to access the at least one host server, wherein the first authentication procedure is separate from the second authentication procedure, and wherein the at least one intermediary server is independently managed from the at least one host server.
