Project Summary

Espeo Software accelerated development of a smart content governance product (Protect), focusing on the rule-management components that apply filters and detect risky file-sharing use cases. They integrated quickly into the client's processes, communicated constantly, and demonstrated technical expertise while working as part of a larger 20-person team. The engagement ran from September 2016 to March 2017 and was extended from three to six months.

Key Challenges

Accelerate development of the Protect product to complement document analysis and data governance
Detect and highlight data leakage risks in files
Lack of internal hiring capacity and need for rapid external support

Project Deliverables

Frontend components (JavaScript)
Backend services (Java)
Rule-management module for content governance

Project Solution

Espeo Software embedded engineers into the client's existing teams, assigning one frontend and two backend engineers to support specific parts of the product. They developed the rule-management components that apply filters to analyzed data and implemented use-cases such as share-rule detection. Work used Java on the backend and JavaScript on the frontend, and the team initially worked fully on-site before moving to a hybrid on-site/off-site cadence.

Project Outcome

Integrated quickly and adapted to existing development methodologies
Demonstrated strong technical expertise and delivered on commitments
Engagement was extended from three to six months and the team worked as part of a 20-person project team
