SECUDE Solutions AG
Protect your Autodesk® Inventor® files using SECUDE’s data encryption solution based on Microsoft Purview Information Protection (MPIP)

General Usage Instructions

At a high level, HaloCAD workflow involves the following steps:

1.      To create new CAD files, a user launches the CAD application and logs into the HaloCAD session for the first time.

2.      HaloCAD connects with your Azure tenant. This manual uses the tenant "halocad.onmicrosoft.com" as an example.

a.       Azure AD requests for user identification.

b.       Microsoft Purview Information Protection (MPIP) labels are downloaded by the logged-in user (for instance, john@halocad.onmicrosoft.com) following successful authentication.

3.       File protection: On two files, the user (John) chooses and applies two distinct labels.

4.       HaloCAD enforces the document's protection settings based on the label that is selected. When a user assigns a sensitivity label, it is saved in the document's metadata and the label's protection settings are applied to the content to protect it.

5.       File-Sharing: Assume that john@halocad.onmicrosoft.com shares the files with several users. User A, B, and C receive File 1, while User D receives File 2.

6.       Content consumption: Users A, B, C, and D attempt to access protected information. Each user account is verified by Azure AD, and the file opens after successful authentication. A user is granted use permissions like View, Edit, Print, Copy, Export, and Change rights depending on the label that has been applied. Different levels of usage rights will be granted to each user or user group. Note: The user who initializes HaloCAD will be the author and will have full rights to the document.

For more details about labels, please refer to the Microsoft Documentation.

a. File 1 - The file is fully accessible to User A@halocad.onmicrosoft.com.

b. File 1 - Access is read-only for User B@halocad.onmicrosoft.com.

c. File 1 - User C@halocad.onmicrosoft.com  cannot open the file.

d. File 2 - File access was previously granted to User D@halocad.onmicrosoft.com,  however, it was revoked due to risky suspicious activity.
