Varonis Privacy Automation File Opener

Privacy Automation is an enterprise search engine that enables users to search the organization's Varonis-monitored file systems for the data they need, providing information governance for administrators, and compliance and legal officers. Privacy Automation leverages the power and security of the Varonis classification engine to index a company's data and provide relevant search results. The results displayed in the application contain UNC links to the files that match the search criteria. Chrome’s default behavior prevents users from opening files in UNC format (that is, file://FileServer/share/filename). This extension enables authorized Privacy Automation users to open files and folders in UNC format through the Privacy Automation search engine. When a link is clicked, the extension verifies whether that link is valid and generated by Privacy Automation and then opens it in a new browser tab.
