US Patent 10454976 Confidentiality-based file hosting

Various embodiments provide confidentiality-based file hosting by automatically directing assets in a shared workspace to appropriate storage locations. The storage location can be determined by comparing a security level that is associated with an asset to security levels of multiple possible storage locations. If a security level of the asset is changed in the shared workspace, the asset is automatically directed to an appropriate storage location based on the changed security level. This can include directing the asset to either a more secure or a less secure storage location.
