Varonis Privacy Automation File Opener is a free Chrome add-on developed by varonis.com. It is designed to address the issue of opening files and folders in UNC format within the Varonis Privacy Automation search engine.

Privacy Automation is an enterprise search engine that allows users to search for data in Varonis-monitored file systems. It provides information governance for administrators, as well as compliance and legal officers. The search results displayed in the application contain UNC links to the matching files. However, Chrome's default behavior restricts users from opening files in UNC format.

With the Varonis Privacy Automation File Opener extension, authorized users can now open files and folders in UNC format through the Privacy Automation search engine. When a link is clicked, the extension verifies the link's validity and ensures that it was generated by Privacy Automation. It then opens the link in a new browser tab, allowing users to access the desired files and folders seamlessly.
