Abstract
Systems and methods for secure third-party document editing are described. In some embodiments, a method may include tokenizing a file retrieved from a cloud storage provider (CSP); transmitting the tokenized file to a cloud editing provider (CEP); receiving a modified, tokenized file from the CEP; de-tokenizing the modified file; and enabling rendering of the de-tokenized, modified file. In other embodiments, a memory device may have program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by a processor of an Information Handling System (IHS), cause the IHS to: provide a portal to a user executing a browser on a client device, wherein the portal includes an interface to a CSP and to a cloud editing provider (CDEP); and allow the user to access a document stored in the CSP and to edit the document using the CDEP via the browser.
