  • Automating Document Translation with Fusion Platform

    Automating Document Translation with Fusion Platform

    Imagine how convenient it would be to receive a contract from a foreign partner and have it translated automatically. After all, as global business landscapes become increasingly interconnected, why should language remain a barrier?Neomind’s Fusion Platform offers an advanced solution for instant document translation, leveraging Artificial Intelligence to convert text into multiple languages within seconds. This feature is revolutionizing information and document management, as it is seamlessly integrated and readily available on the platform.

    Are you ready to leverage this functionality and expand your business’ reach? Find out more about Fusion’s automated document translation features.

    What is Automated Translation?

    Automated translation uses algorithms and natural language models to convert text from one language to another. Today’s technology employs deep neural networks to learn complex translation patterns, which form the foundation of many automated translation systems. This has led to significant improvements in text quality and fluency.

    The goal is not just to translate words, but to preserve meaning, ensuring the message is conveyed accurately. Users can translate entire documents, specific sections, and create multilingual file versions—making it a major asset for communication in diverse global markets.

    The more automated translation is utilized, the more the platform and its AI learn, building a rich database for terminological consistency in future translations. This ongoing learning process addresses one of the major challenges of automated translation: maintaining translation quality, particularly with complex texts or specialized vocabulary.

    Document Translation with Fusion Platform

    As a comprehensive document management platform, the Fusion Platform’s AI-driven translation functionality enhances communication and collaboration across languages. Leveraging advanced Azure technology, translations are both efficient and accurate. The focus is on breaking down language barriers, saving time, and improving team productivity.

    With robust document management features, Fusion Platform securely organizes, stores, and makes the retrieval of translated documents easier. This capability makes it an essential tool for enhancing operational efficiency and expanding global communication in multicultural, multilingual business environments.

    Translations occur in real-time the moment a file is selected and uploaded. PDF files can be easily attached, translated, and edited. By integrating with other tools, one can efficiently gather and translate information from other systems like ERPs.

    Applications for Automated Document Translation

    Automated document translation can be applied in various contexts, both for internal and external documentation. Use this solution to swiftly translate manuals, reports, and other document types into multiple languages.

    Another application includes translating emails, chatbots, websites, and other direct communication channels with your customers. This capability enhances understanding and improves user experience. Furthermore, marketing actions such as social media posts and rich content can be translated for a global audience.

    Automated translation is also invaluable for simplifying the understanding of contracts and business agreements. Additionally, it enables the provision of accessible materials such as reports and presentations, adapting training content to different languages for seamless onboarding of new employees.

    Exploring Document Management with Fusion Platform

    Fusion Platform’s EDM module allows for the capture of digital or electronic documents, keeping everything centralized in a single repository for easier access, organization, and security. Indexing and retrieval ensure each document is tagged with relevant information such as title, author, and keywords, allowing users to search, retrieve, and locate information within documents. When a file receives automated translation, it can also be indexed with its own metadata.

    Another advantage provided by Fusion Platform is document traceability and versioning control. If technical terms or translations need adjustments, the user can simply edit the file and track when modifications were made by other users.

    Automating document management tasks is essential for streamlining processes, especially for approvals, reviews, notifications, and electronic signature requests.

    Benefits of Automated Document Translation

    Automated document translation is undeniably a revolutionary solution that will only become more in demand. With advances in technology and the internet, geographical distances are becoming less significant in major negotiations.

    Utilizing a solution like the Fusion Platform, which enables complete document management with instant file translation, provides benefits such as:

    • Increased Efficiency: Automated translation reduces the time and costs involved in manual processes, making files available for users in other languages in seconds.
    • Improved Communication: By eliminating language barriers, individuals from different countries can communicate more easily, regardless of their native languages.
    • Accessibility: Users can access and share documents and information with a broader audience, regardless of language.
    • Speed: Translate large volumes of documents in mere seconds, enhancing productivity and process speed.
    • Consistency: Ensures uniformity in terminology and document structure.
    • Electronic Signature: Documents translated with the Fusion Platform can be digitally signed, thanks to the platform’s native electronic signature capabilities.
    • Centralized Management: All versions of documents—originals and translations—are stored in the Fusion repository, facilitating access, control, and organization while ensuring information security and compliance.

    Fusion Platform’s document translation feature optimizes processes, reduces costs, and makes your business more agile, competent, and powerful—allowing you to capture new customers, both on domestic and international markets.

    Try Fusion Platform and explore the benefits of automated translation and document management, processes, indicators, and risk management.

  • What is Integrated Authentication and how does it work?

    What is Integrated Authentication and how does it work?

    A very common scenario nowadays is to have a lot of passwords to access banks, social networks, online stores, Netflix, among thousands of other services. The same applies in the business context, since in our companies we also have to control access credentials for various systems such as email, ERP systems, ECM, Human Resources, etc. The problem is both for users and for IT administrators who have to manage all these password repositories.

    Currently, for the personal context we have several alternatives for password control, such as the Google Chrome password manager, which, when synchronized with our Google user, allows us to store several passwords. In companies, the dream of users and system administrators is to have a single password authenticated in one place (the so-called Single Sign-on) that allows instant access to all the systems in the organization.

    To assist in this process there are several integrated authentication mechanisms, which, as the name implies, integrate with the company various systems and guarantee the user’s identity without us having to enter it several times.

    How do integrated authentication mechanisms work?

    Basically these systems work as follows:

    1. The integrated authentication system is configured against a repository of users and passwords, which can be, for example, a password repository of your own or integrated with an Active Directory (repository of users and computers of a Windows domain).
    2. When a user accesses an application (in our example, the company ERP), the application checks whether the user is already logged in. If not, it asks the integrated authentication system “Which user is logged in?
    3. The integrated authentication system checks whether there is an authenticated user. If not, it requests the user’s credentials (user and password).
    4. Once the user is logged into the integrated authentication system, it tells the application which user is logged in.
    5. The ERP application in our example receives the user and proceeds to give access to the tool.
    6. In case the user accesses another company application, such as the HR system, this new application repeats step 2. However, since the user is already logged into the system, it goes straight to step 4.

    We can see that the operation is relatively simple: the user accesses the system, the system accesses the integrated authentication, and the integrated authentication passes the logged-on user to the system (and if necessary, collects the user’s credentials).

    Advantages of integrated authentication

    Integrated authentication mechanisms also allow for a number of advantages, such as:

    • User-friendly login interface, because the “login screen” will always be the same;
    • Centralized password repository;
    • Possibility to implement token authentication, multi-factor authentication (with SMS messaging for example) for all applications; and
    • Implementation of policies (schedules, allowed stations, among others) that affect the routine access to the systems.

    Integrated authentication systems and protocols

    Here we will mention three:

    • CAS
    • SAML
    • ADFS

    CAS – Central Authentication Service

    This is a single sign-on authentication protocol for the web, allowing users to access multiple applications by entering their credentials only once. It basically follows the script mentioned above: when the client accesses a system that requires authentication, it redirects to the CAS, which authenticates the user and returns the user to the application.

    CAS was conceived and developed at YALE University and later became a project of the JASIG (Java in Administration Special Interest Group). Currently it is maintained by the APEREO Foundation. Among the main resources we can mention:

    1. Support for various authentication protocols (LDAP, SAML, and others);
    2. Multi-factor authentication (password and SMS for example);
    3. Password management and authentication policies.

    SAML – Security Assertion Markup Language

    Unlike CAS, SAML is an XML language for exchanging security information. It is mentioned here because it is used by many integrated authentication mechanisms (including CAS) to exchange information.

    Basically it defines a standard XML message for the “conversations” between the application and the authentication service. For example, it defines the pattern of what information the IDP (Identity Provider) should return to the application according to what the application requests.

    This language is widespread and can work with many integrated, single sign-on authentication systems such as CAS and Microsoft’s ADFS.

    ADFS – Active Directory Federation Services

    It is an integrated authentication system that can run on Windows servers and provides single sign-on for applications located in the organization. ADFS uses the Windows Active Directory as the identity provider and password repository and integrates with systems via various protocols such as LDAP, SAML and others.

    In closing

    In this article we have only mentioned a few protocols and systems that allow you to implement integrated, single sign-on authentication within organizations, but there are many other systems and protocols in the market.

    It is important to reinforce that while these tools increase security – because we have a centralized repository and a specialized system for the purpose of authentication control – good management is required to avoid points of vulnerability. Restricted policies, password expiration, and multi-factor authentication are important items to increase security.

    Implementing authentication systems has its complexities in the choice of tools and supported protocols, but their adoption solves a number of authentication-related problems while increasing security and making life easier for users.

    For our customers, it is worth reinforcing that Fusion Platform supports all the mechanisms mentioned in this article, adhering to the policies of companies that adopt or wish to adopt them.
