How Sisecam Protects Product Designs and Builds Stakeholder Trust

Zusammenfassung

Herausforderung
Sisecam, a glass manufacturer, frequently shares early-stage product designs with clients such as IKEA, Efes Beverage Group, and Turk Tuborg. These designs are confidential and often not yet in production—making IP protection a top priority. Ensuring these sensitive assets are not misused, copied, or leaked during the design phase is critical to maintaining the company’s competitive edge and safeguarding its innovation pipeline.

Lösung
Sisecam used Digify to securely share sensitive design files with both internal teams and external clients. The platform’s granular permission settings, document tracking, and watermarking features gave them the control and visibility they needed without disrupting their workflow.

Ergebnisse 
With Digify, Sisecam streamlined file sharing, eliminated reliance on IT approvals, and gained real-time insight into document access. These improvements not only reduced administrative work and built trust with stakeholders, it also helped accelerate project timelines through faster, more responsive collaboration.

About Sisecam

Sisecam is a global leader in the glass manufacturing industry, producing a wide range of products including glassware for homes, packaging, flat glass, and soda bottles. Within the company, the Design team plays a vital role in shaping product concepts that span both function and form.

We spoke with members of Sisecam’s Design department, including designers and a UX researcher, to understand how they collaborate across departments and with clients—while ensuring the security of their sensitive product designs.

The Challenge: Sisecam needed a secure, controlled way to share confidential design files in order to prevent IP theft

1. Security & Confidentiality Risks

  • No way to prevent unauthorized downloads, forwarding, or copying of design files
  • Risk of exposing sensitive, unregistered designs before products reached the market
  • Instances where similar designs appeared under other brands, raising concerns about IP theft

2. Lack of Visibility & Control

  • Inability to track who opened or reviewed documents
  • No audit trail to identify engaged or inactive stakeholders
  • Difficulty managing who had access to what, and for how long

3. Operational Bottlenecks

  • Reliance on IT approvals for external file sharing via OneDrive
  • Slow and manual processes that delayed collaboration with clients
  • No standardized system for managing short-term vs long-term access to files

The Solution: Secure, Controlled, and Efficient Document Sharing with Digify

Sisecam adopted Digify after determining it offered the most secure and user-friendly solution for sharing sensitive design files. The platform met the company’s dual needs: protecting unregistered product concepts while maintaining efficient collaboration with both internal stakeholders and global clients.

1. Secure Sharing for Sensitive Designs

  • Advanced Access Controls: Sisecam could assign tailored permissions such as view-only, download, or limited-time access, based on the sensitivity of each project or file.
  • Watermark & Screen Shield: Built-in protection tools prevented unauthorized distribution, ensured traceability, and safeguarded visual IP.
  • Granular Expiry Settings: Files could be made available for a few hours, days, or longer, giving Sisecam control over who sees what, and for how long.

2. Workflow Efficiency and Autonomy

  • No IT Bottlenecks: Teams no longer needed to wait for file-sharing approvals or workaround cloud restrictions. Digify gave them full autonomy to share files securely and instantly.
  • Real-Time Notifications: Stakeholders were alerted automatically when files were uploaded or accessed, reducing the need for manual follow-ups.
  • Centralized Data Rooms: All project documents were organized in one place, simplifying version control and stakeholder management.

3. Confidence, Consistency, and Control

  • Trackable Engagement: Sisecam could see who opened which files and when, helping them manage follow-ups and prioritize engagement.
  • Reduced Risk Exposure: With more visibility and control, the risk of unintentional leaks or misuse was significantly reduced.

Since data is shared through a more secure platform, we can track it. Being able to track the journey of all that data is actually quite reassuring.

The Results: Greater Control, Faster Workflows, and Stronger Trust

Since adopting Digify, Sisecam has significantly improved how it manages, shares, and tracks sensitive design files. The platform has helped stramline collaboration while reinforcing security and building trust with internal teams and external clients alike.

Digify not only resolved the company’s initial concerns around document misuse, it also introduced a more professional, efficient, and accountable way to manage critical design communications.

1. Secure, Professional Sharing Experience

  • No Document Leaks: Since implementation, Sisecam has not experienced any unauthorized access or file misuse.
  • Improved Stakeholder Confidence: Both internal and external stakeholders have gained peace of mind knowing their data is being shared through a secure and professional platform.

2. Operational Efficiency and Time Savings

  • Eliminated IT Delays: Without having to wait for IT approvals, teams can now share files instantly and move designs forward more quickly.
  • Triggered Faster Responses: Automatic notifications prompt recipients to check new uploads right away, reducing lag and encouraging quicker reviews without the need for manual follow-ups.
  • Faster Project Cycles: With streamlined sharing and quicker feedback, design and approval timelines have shortened.

Digify's interface is simple, it's not tiring to use, and it's not confusing in terms of where to click and what to do. It's user-friendly, which was an important factor in our decision-making process.

3. Visibility, Accountability, and Flexibility

  • Insight into Engagement: Sisecam can track who opens which files and when, helping teams identify active participants and follow up more effectively.
  • Flexible Access Management: Time-based permissions make it easy to align access with the scope and timeline of each project.
  • Long Term Traceability: The ability to review document history and access logs adds a layer of accountability and helps support secure project planning.
