Abstract
A method for providing document-level security for electronic documents comprises identifying a plurality of roles for the electronic document, the plurality of roles comprising at least one role associated with a first participant ID of a first client. The roles are dynamically stored in the electronic document. One or more participant IDs are dynamically stored in the electronic document, including at least the first participant ID, wherein each participant ID is associated with at least one role. A second participant ID of a second client is determined and the second client's ability to access the electronic document is automatically determined based, at least in part, on the second participant ID and the stored roles and participant IDs.
