IDENTIFYING CONTENT UNDER ACCESS CONTROL

摘要

A search query is received from a first user through one or more input devices. A set of results is determined from content stored on a computer system based on the search query. The set of results includes a first subset of results not accessible to the first user due to access control. A list of results is provided to the first user. The list excludes the first subset of results. A target result is identified from the first subset of results. An owner is identified with control over access to the target result. The owner is notified that the target result is not accessible to at least one user.

1. A system for identifying content under access control, the system comprising:
one or more computer processors; and a memory containing program instructions, the program instructions executable by the one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to perform a method comprising:
receiving, from a computing device connected to a computer system, a search query from a first user;performing, based on the search query, a search on the computer system using a superuser account with access to all content stored on the computer system, the content including documents, spreadsheets, images, and video;identifying a set of results from the content stored on the computer system based on the search, the set of results including a first subset of results, the first subset of results not accessible to the first user due to access control;providing a list of results from the set of results to the first user, the list excluding the first subset of results, the first subset of results not provided to the first user;identifying, without input from the first user, a target result from the first subset of results based on the target result being produced as an inaccessible result in a specified number of searches with at least a minimum relevance value and within a specified period of time;identifying an owner with permission to modify access control for the target result;determining the owner is associated with the user in a social network; andproviding, in response to the determining the owner is associated with the user in the social network, a notification to the owner through a user interface, the notification indicating that the target result is not accessible to the first user, the notification including information about the first user, the notification further including search statistics regarding the target result, the search statistics including a number of users that have performed a search that produced the target result and did not have access to the target result, the user interface allowing the owner to modify the access control for the target result, the user interface further allowing the owner to notify the first user that the owner has permission to modify the access control for the target result.
