Abstract:

Methods and apparatuses for providing a permissions-aware search and knowledge management system that incorporates user suggested results, document verification, and intelligent user activity tracking across group hierarchies to improve the quality and relevance of search results are described. The permissions-aware search and knowledge management system may enable content stored across a variety of local and cloud-based data stores to be indexed, searched, and displayed to authorized users. The identification and ranking of relevant documents corresponding with a user's search query may take into account user suggested results from the user and others assigned to the same group as the user, whether the underlying content of a search result was verified by a content owner as being up-to-date, the amount of time that has passed since the underlying content was verified by the content owner, and the recent activity of the user and related group members.
