Abstract

Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine readable mediums which monitor, archive, and version file system elements stored in one or more different network based file storage systems for one or more different users. Any changes to file system elements stored in the network based file storage systems are recorded and versioned. The system may allow users to revert to a previous version of a file system element, recover a deleted file system element, and the system allows for audits to determine which users placed a file system element in which network based file storage systems and determine which users had access to the file system element in the network based file storage systems. As a result, the disclosed system improves the end-user experience by providing versioning and auditing capabilities as well as allowing organizations to monitor and control their digital property in network based file storage systems.
