Techniques for modifying a period of time that data, associated with a characteristic, transmitted via a communication platform is retained are described. A data retention rule can include a first period of time for retaining data transmitted via the communication platform, in association with an organization. The first user can additionally establish a specific data retention rule associated with data associated with a particular characteristic. The specific data retention rule can include an instruction to store communications including the particular characteristic for a second time period that is different from the first time period associated with the data retention rule. The communication platform can receive data from a second user computing device associated with the second user of the organization. Based on a determination that the data is associated with the characteristic, the communication platform can store the data according to the data retention rule specified for such data.

Data retention in group-based communication platform

Media, method, and system for providing encryption key management for international data residency. Organizations using a group-based communication system can designate a particular geopolitical area where that organization's data can be stored and another geopolitical area (which may be the same or different) where encryption keys used to encrypt and decrypt that data should be stored. Users of that organization can post message or access messages previously posted on the group-based communication system from any geopolitical area, causing the system to automatically store and retrieve messages and encryption keys from the appropriate regions to allow the users to transparently access the group-based communication system while maintaining security and data residency requirements.

Encryption key management for international data residency

A system, method, and computer-readable media for providing inline data loss prevention (DLP) within a group-based communication system. A DLP engine is included to apply an organization-specific DLP policy to a user input to determine whether the user input should be displayed in a group-based communication channel of the group-based communication system. Multiple organizations sharing a channel may each have their own respective organization-specific DLP policies applied to incoming and outgoing messages for that organization.
