Canada Compliance for Secure File Sharing: PIPEDA, Law 25, Protected B & OSFI B-13

Secure file sharing in Canada must align with PIPEDA (federal private-sector privacy), Quebec’s Law 25, Government of Canada Protected B requirements for the public sector, and OSFI Guideline B-13 for federally regulated financial institutions. FileOrbis supports these with content-aware DLP, immutable audit trails, granular access, and Canadian data residency including on-premises deployment.

PIPEDA-compliant secure file collaboration platforms

The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) governs how private-sector organizations handle personal information.

FileOrbis:

  1. Classifies personal information automatically
  2. Enforces content-aware sharing policy
  3. Keeps an immutable audit trail
  4. Supports Canadian data residency with customer-managed keys

Quebec Law 25 compliant secure document management

Quebec’s Law 25 modernizes privacy obligations with strict rules on consent, breach reporting, and transfers outside Quebec.

FileOrbis supports Law 25-aligned document management with:

  • Automated classification
  • Granular access control
  • Revocable sharing
  • An immutable audit trail
  • Residency options that keep data in-province or in-country

Secure collaboration for Canadian government (Protected B)

Government of Canada information classified up to Protected B requires strict handling and, frequently, Canadian-controlled infrastructure.

  1. On-premises or Canadian sovereign-cloud deployment
  2. Content-aware DLP
  3. Identity-aware access
  4. Watermarking
  5. A complete audit trail

Secure document management for Canadian financial institutions (OSFI B-13)
